The term "kaonium" is used for different exotic atoms and one has to be careful to distinguish them. In the sited paper from Krewald et al. the kaonium as a electromagnetically bound state of a positively charged kaon and a negatively charged antikaon (K+K-) is considered and the lifetime was calculated for this atom not for kaonic hydrogen (pK-) mentioned in this article.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.151.120.81 (talkcontribs) 15:31, 14 July 2006
