Abstract

With this work we start a project calculating the QED contribution of order α7m to the 2P32S3 transition energy in helium, aiming for an accurate determination of the nuclear charge radius rE from measurements of the corresponding transition frequency. Together with the complementary determination of rE from muonic helium, this project will provide a stringent test of universality of electromagnetic interactions of leptons in the Standard Model. We report a calculation of the relativistic corrections to the Bethe logarithm for the 2S3 and 2P3 states, which is the most numerically demanding part of the project.
