Abstract: The paper provides a review and educational focus on the study of the hyperfine structure of the hydrogen atom, the exploration of which began in the middle of the last century. Since neutral hydrogen is the most common chemical element in the Universe, the radiation emitted due to the hyperfine splitting of its ground state allows for a wide observation of various astrophysical objects and the evolution of the Universe. Here, we describe the transition and calculate the average lifetime of the excited energy level within the hyperfine structure of the hydrogen atom. Additionally, we consider the influence of a magnetic field on the splitting and the average lifetime of the excited energy levels in this system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
