Abstract
We report our final result on the Lamb-shift measurement in hydrogenlike phosphorous using the laser-resonance method. From the measured value of the energy splitting [539.60(20) THz, or 5555.8(2.0) Å] the Lamb shift is deduced in the framework of Erickson's and Mohr's calculations. and are the results of the subtraction of the measured energy splitting and the fine structure calculated by the two authors, respectively. The results, THz and THz, indicate agreement with Mohr's theoretical approach () and are more than two standard deviations from Erickson's calculations (). A general overview on the experimental techniques and results is given. The general trend of the presently available experimental results on Lamb-shift measurements are compared with Mohr's calculations.
