As a very famous result in the early days of constructive quantum field theory, Nelson proved that for charges coupled to a scalar massless Bose field the ultraviolet cutoff can be removed at the expense of an infinite energy renormalization. In this contribution, the authors study Nelson's model for the case of a hydrogen-like atom. The main goal is to obtain precise estimates on the binding energy and thus to prove that Nelsons's renormalized Hamiltonian is in agreement with the experimental fact of small radiative corrections.
