A recent publication stated there was a significant divergence in energies of emitted photons of highly charged ions (helium-like titanium) from QED predictions. Since QED is one of the most trusted quantitative theories, this is something.

The paper is available from APS (please see the link). Does somebody have a membership or access to this paper? If yes, please email it to [email protected]

I'd like to recalculate the measurements with QIT, which predicts such divergences. Is there already another idea why QED differs from these measurements?
