The effect of vacuum energy on the spectrum of atomic H is investigated usi ng a Schrodinger equation and Higgs mechanism. It is shown that the effect of the latter is to decrease the energy level of the ground state of the H atom emitting energy in the process. This mechanism has been observed empir ically in recently reported reproducible and repeatable experiments.
