The present knowledge of Lamb shift, fine- and hyperfine structure of the $\mathrm{2S}$ and $\mathrm{2P}$ states in muonic deuterium is reviewed in anticipation of the results of a first measurement of several $\mathrm{2S-2P}$ transition frequencies in muonic deuterium ($\mu\mathrm{d}$). A term-by-term comparison of all available sources reveals reliable values and uncertainties of the QED and nuclear structure-dependent contributions to the Lamb shift, which are essential for a determination of the deuteron rms charge radius from $\mu\mathrm{d}$. Apparent discrepancies between different sources are resolved, in particular for the difficult two-photon exchange contributions. Problematic single-sourced terms are identified which require independent recalculation.

  1. Hadronic vacuum polarization in hydrogen-like atoms and ions amid the interplay of recoil and finite-size effects

    physics.atom-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    The hVP contribution to the HFS in muonic hydrogen is 2.153(11) µeV, deviating from previous evaluations by ~10x the anticipated experimental precision, due to corrected recoil and finite-size interplay.
