Abstract
The properties of the electromagnetic field around a hydrogen atom in the excited 2P3/2 state are studied in relativistic quantum electrodynamics. The field theory definition of an excited state is introduced. This definition is used to find the time-dependent energy density and angular momentum density associated with the virtual photon cloud surrounding the atom as well as with real wave absorbed by the atom and emitted by it.
