                         Lamb  shift

The Lamb shift is caused by the interaction of the electron with the quantized electromagnetic field and with the  negative-continuum Dirac sea.

                    Hyperfine splitting              

The  hyperfine splitting  is caused by the interaction of the electron with the magnetic field induced by a non-zero nuclear magnetic moment.
