摘要
A part of the two-loop Lamb shift called the perturbed orbital term is evaluated with exact Dirac-Coulomb propagators. It is shown to be the most nonperturbative function of Z alpha yet encountered in QED, so much so that even at Z = 1 the leading term in its Z alpha expansion is of the opposite sign from the complete answer. The higher order contributions are -71(1) kHz to the ground state Lamb shift in hydrogen and -8.9(1) and -346(1) kHz to the n = 2 Lamb shift in hydrogen and He+, respectively.
