| dc.description | We present a new independent evaluation of the hadronic and QCD contributions to the QED running coupling α(M_Z) and to the muonium hyperfine splitting ν. We obtain: Δα_{had}=2770(17)10^{-5} and Δν_{had}=232.5(2.5) Hz. Combined with the QED and Electroweak Standard Model contributions, they lead to: α^{-1}(M_Z)=128.926(25) and to the Fermi energy splitting ν_F=4~459~031~783(229) Hz, where for the latter, we have used, in addition, the precise measurement of the muonium hyperfine splitting ν_{exp}. We use ν_F in order to predict the ratios of masses m_μ/m_e=206.768~276(11) and of the magnetic moments μ_μ/μ^e_B=4.841~970~47(25)10^{-3}, which are in excellent agreement with the ones quoted by the Particle Data Group. These remarkable agreements can provide strong constraints on some contributions beyond the Standard Model. | |
