A new term in muonium hyperfine splitting

We have calculated the leading three-loop recoil correction in the muonium hyperfine splitting. After recent numerical calculation of the remaining two-loop corrections this term of the form ∼( α/ π) 3( m e/ m μ ) ln 3 ( m μ / m e) is the largest of the yet unknown terms.
