Abstract
We present semi-analytic solutions for atomic transition rates in hydrogenic
atoms induced by scalar, pseudoscalar, vector, axial-vector, and tensor
interactions. Our results agree with quantum electrodynamics predictions to
$\sim 0.005\,\%$ precision, and further allow us to calculate absorption and
emission rates for axions, hidden photons, light scalars or other dark matter
candidates for hydrogen and hydrogenic ions. These results can be used to
inform searches for light new physics as well as in calculations relevant to
searches for fifth forces or varying fundamental constants, with applications
from astrophysics to laboratory spectroscopy experiments. We also provide a
dedicated tool for the construction of hydrogenic transition amplitudes:
"Computation of hydrogen radial INtegrals and COefficients" ($\texttt{CINCO}$).
我们提出了氢原子中由标量、伪标量、矢量、轴矢和张量相互作用诱导的原子转变率的半解析解。我们的结果与量子电动力学的预测一致,精度达到0.005\\%$,并进一步允许我们计算轴子、隐光子、轻标量或其他暗物质候选者对氢和氢离子的吸收和发射率。这些结果可用于为搜索轻新物理提供信息,也可用于与搜索第五力或变化的基本常数相关的计算,应用范围从天体物理学到实验室光谱学实验。我们还提供了构建氢跃迁振幅的专用工具:"氢径向积分和 CO 系数计算"($\texttt{CINCO}$)。
