Here r is the Bohr radius of the pionic hydrogen atom with i b = 222.56 fm, Qo = 0.142 fm-1 is a kinematical factor and P=1.546 0.009 is the Panofsky ratio [6]. 6e and dr are electromagnetic corrections, which have recently been calculated with a potential model with an accuracy of about 0.5% [7], In a recent study the problem of the electromagnetic corrections is discussed and the potential model ansatz is critizised [8]. 

Table 4. Lamb shift contribution for the ground state of 238U91+ ion (in eV). Here Ro denotes the nuclear radius, M is nuclear mass and ao is the Bohr radius. The finite nuclear-size correction is calculated for a Fermi distribution with (r2)1 /2 = 5.860 0.002 fm. The corrections VPVP (f) and S(VP)E are known only in Uehling approximation. The inaccuracies assigned to these rather small corrections are estimated as the average of the inaccuracies of the Uehling approximation deduced from exact results for the corrections VPVP (e) and SEVP (g),(h),(i)...

A further correction, a type of reduced mass effect, arises from the recoil of the nucleus in the emission of virtual photons which, in the theory, describe the attraction between the nucleus and the electron. The effect is not independent of the structure of the nucleus. It is, however, possible to separate the contributions due to mass and structure, so that the correction appears as the product of two terms, Gr and C8. The magnitude of Cr9 the contribution from a point proton (equation 11.6), has been estimated as parts in 105 [97]. Cs, the structure correction [146], is found to be (1 —2r/a0), where r is an average electromagnetic radius, and a0 is the Bohr radius. G9 is independent of n([146], p. 1773).

The former equation suggests that r is dimensionless because an argument of the exponential fimction can never have a dimension. However, in the latter equation r can have the dimension of length, provided the parameter a adopts this dimension as well. In effect, if a is identified with the Bohr radius flo then r should indeed have the dimension of length. Following the line of thought detailed in their paper I now present what 1 believe to be the correct calculation, which will lead to the opposite conclusion. 

The same periodic function results from optimization on a golden spiral with a variable convergence angle of Art In — 1), which describes a spherical standing wave with nodes at n. Analysis of the wave structure shows that it correctly models the atomic electron distribution for all elements as a function of the golden ratio and the Bohr radius, uq. Normalization of the wave structure into uniform spherical units simulates atomic activation, readily interpreted as the basis of electronegativity and chemical affinity. 

The Bohr radius given in Eq. (14.4-15) is equal to the radius of the first orbit of a hydrogen atom in the Bohr theory assuming a stationary nucleus. If we correct for the motion of the nucleus by replacing the electron mass by the reduced mass,... 

If the relativistic effects are sufficiently large and therefore cannot be accounted for as corrections, then as a rule one has to utilize relativistic wave functions and the relativistic Hamiltonian, usually in the form of the so-called relativistic Breit operator. In the case of an N-electron atom the latter may be written as follows (in atomic units, in which the absolute value of electron charge e, its mass m and Planck constant h are equal to one, whereas the unit of length is equal to the radius of the first Bohr orbit of the hydrogen atom) ... 

That the cross-section of a jet of liquid from a non-circular orifice vibrates between the form of the orifice and a circle was first observed by Bidone.i This produces a series of waves. The explanation of the phenomenon as due to surface tension was given by BufF, the mathematical theory and experimental method being developed by Lord Rayleigh. Piccard and Meyer used the method for comparative measurements, refinements being introduced by Pedersen and Bohr. Rayleigh showed that for an ideal jet of radius r at its circular section, the time of oscillation is r=Ki(Qr layi where q is the density of the liquid. For an actual liquid r depends on the flow-rate and corrections are necessary. The period r is related to the directing force F and moment of inertia I by the equation t=7t(IIF) f. Since I is proportional to the mass or density and depends in an unknown way on the form of the orifice, and F is proportional to the surface tension a, it follows that r=7iA(Qla) where is a constant. Since r=l jn and where A=wave-... 

The above equation is based on a linear analysis that applies only for infinitesimal paturbations. Perturbations of finite amplitude are required, however, for a practical experiment. An early papa- of Niels Bohr (1909) dealt with the necessary extension. He also included the effect of liquid viscosity. A corrected equation suitable for perturbations whose amplitude b is finite but still smaller than the mean radius R is... 

Bohr orbits for an electron in the hydrogen atom. These circular and elliptical orbits were involved in the Bohr theory. They do not provide a correct de.scription of the motion of the electron in the hydrogen atom. According to the theory of quantum mechanics, which seems to be essentially correct, the electron moves about the nucleus in the hydrogen atom in roughly the way described by Bohr, but the motion in the normal state ( = 1) is not in a circle, but is radial (in and out. toward the nucleus and away from the nucleus). The most probable distance of the electron from the nucleus, according to quantum mechanics, is the same as the radius of the Bohr orbit.

The theoretical calculation of the Rydberg constant starts out by assuming the correctness of Eq. (1) for the field-free hydrogen atom. Since this expression is identical with the expressions derived by Bohr in 1915, it is warranted to accept the values as deduced by him. This means inter alia the acceptance of the constant called the radius of the first Bohr orbit, ao, which is given by...
