On atomic analogue of Landau quantization
arXiv:0803.3864 · doi:10.1016/j.physleta.2008.03.029
Abstract
We have studied the physics of atoms with permanent electric dipole moment and non vanishing magnetic moment interacting with an electric field and inhomogeneous magnetic field. This system can be demonstrated as the atomic analogue of Landau quantization of charged particles in a uniform magnetic field. This Landau-like atomic problem is also studied with space-space noncommutative coordinates.
