✦ Synopsis

It is demonstrated, for the first time to our knowledge, that the Lamb-shift calculation for all states of hydrogenic atoms can be carried out to order ct 5 by applying the methods of nonrelativistic quantum electrodynamics and without using the Dirac equation and the second quantization for the electron. The extremely small deviations from the standard relativistic results were calculated for different S-and non-S-states as well.

By applying a method which exploits the 0(4) symmetry of the nonrelativistic hydrogen atom, the Lamb shift is calculated without making the dipole approximation. Similar calculations in the dipole approximation have been previously carried out by Lieber. The advantage of our calculations is that, wi
