Scaled energy spectroscopy

While the success of scaled energy spectroscopy suggests that the behavior of atoms does become classically chaotic near the ionization limit, higher resolution reveals a surprisingly orderly structure. Iu et alhave studied the odd parity Li m = 0 states in a beam travelling in the direction of the magnetic field. They...

According to Gutzwiller s result (4.1.72) the density of states can be computed as a generalized Fourier sum which contains only classical periodic orbit information. Therefore, using a suitable projection technique it should be possible to invert the transform and extract classical periodic orbit information from the level density. The inversion can be achieved using scaled energy spectroscopy, a technique first introduced by...
