  We study kaonic hydrogen, the bound K^-p state A_(Kp). Within a quantum field
theoretic and relativistic covariant approach we derive the energy level
displacement of the ground state of kaonic hydrogen in terms of the amplitude
of K^-p scattering for arbitrary relative momenta. The amplitude of low-energy
K^-p scattering near threshold is defined by the contributions of three
resonances Lambda(1405), Lambda(1800) and Sigma^0(1750) and a smooth elastic
background. The amplitudes of inelastic channels of low-energy K^-p scattering
fit experimental data on near threshold behaviour of the cross sections and the
experimental data by the DEAR Collaboration. We use the soft-pion technique
(leading order in Chiral Perturbation Theory) for the calculation of the
partial width of the radiative decay of pionic hydrogen A_(pi p) -> n + gamma
and the Panofsky ratio. The theoretical prediction for the Panofsky ratio
agrees well with experimental data. We apply the soft-kaon technique (leading
order in Chiral Perturbation Theory) to the calculation of the partial widths
of radiative decays of kaonic hydrogen A_(Kp) -> Lambda^0 + gamma and A_(Kp) ->
Sigma^0 + gamma. We show that the contribution of these decays to the width of
the energy level of the ground state of kaonic hydrogen is less than 1%.
