We report the results of a measurement of the Lamb shift in the n=2 state of muonium. Muonium atoms in the metastable 2S state were produced by the beam-foil method and the formation rate was determined by observation of the Ly-\ensuremath{\alpha} photons emitted when the metastable atoms were quenched in a static electric field. The Lamb shift (${\mathrm{scrS}}_{\mathrm{Mu}}$) was measured through observation of the microwave-induced 2 $^{2}\mathrm{S}_{1/2}$--2 $^{2}P_{1/2}$ transition with the result ${\mathrm{scrS}}_{\mathrm{Mu}{=1042}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}23}^{+21}}$ MHz. This result is in agreement with the current theoretical value. |
