Non-BPS Monopoles and Dyons via Resurgent Transseries

Radially symmetric non-BPS 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles and dyons are constructed as resurgent transseries: infinite sums of exponentially decaying terms, each multiplied by a factorially divergent fluctuation factor. All higher exponential terms are explicitly expressed in terms of the leading order solutions. In the BPS limit all fluctuation terms truncate.

Recoil corrections to the energy levels of hydrogenic atoms

We have completed the calculation of pure-recoil corrections of order $(Z \alpha)^6$ to Coulombic bound states of two spin-1/2 fermions without approximation in the particle masses. Our result applies to systems of arbitrary mass ratio such as muonium and positronium, and also hydrogen and muonic hydrogen (with the neglect of proton structure effects). We have shown how the two-loop master integrals that occur in the relativistic region can be computed in analytic form, and suggest that the same method can be applied to the three-loop integrals that would be present in a calculation of order $(Z \alpha)^7$ corrections.
