Absorption and Recurrence Spectra of Li Rydberg Atom in Perpendicular Electric and Magnetic Fields

We develop the semi-closed orbit theory from two degrees of freedom to three non-separable degrees of freedom and put forward a new model potential for the Li Rydberg atom, which reduces the study of the system to an effective one-particle problem. Using this model potential and the closed orbit theory for three degrees of freedom, we caiculate the recurrence spectra of Li Rydberg atom in perpendicular electric and magnetic fields. The closed orbits in the corresponding classicai system have also been obtained. The Fourier transformed spectra of Li atom have ailowed direct comparison between the resonance peaks and the scaied action values of closed orbits, whereas the nonhydrogenic resonance can be explained in terms of the new orbits created by the core scattering. Our result is in good agreement with the quantum spectra, which suggests that our calculation is correct.     

Absorption and Recurrence Spectra of Sodium Rydberg Atom in a Strong External Magnetic Field

Using core-scattered closed-orbit theory, we calculate the photoabsorption and the scaled recurrence spectra of sodium Rydberg atom in strong magnetic field below ionization threshold. The non-Coulombic nature of the ionic core have been modified by a model potential, which includes an attractive Coulomb potential and a short-ranged core potential. A family of core-scattered nonhydrogenic closed orbits have also been discovered. The Fourier transformed spectra of sodium atom have allowed direct comparison between peaks in such plot and the scaled action values of closed orbits. The new peaks in the recurrence spectra of sodium atom have been considered as effects caused by the core scattering of returning waves at the ionic core. The results are compared with those of hydrogen case, which show that the core-scattered effects play an important role in alkali-metal atoms.     

Absorption and Recurrence Spectra of Nonhydrogenic Rydberg Atom Near a Metal Surface

Multielectron to theoretical treatments atoms near a metal surface are essentially more complicated than hydrogen atom with regard By using the semicalssical dosed orbit theory generalized to the multielecton atoms, we study the dynamical properties of the Rydberg lithium atom near a metal surface. The photoabsorption spectra and recurrence spectra of this system have also been calculated. Considering the effect of the ionic core potential of the Rydberg lithium atom, the number of the closed orbits increases, which leads to more peaks in the recurrence spectra than the case of hydrogen atom near a metal surface. This result shows that the core-scattered effects play an important role in nonhydrogenic atoms. This study is a new application of the closed-orbit theory and is of potential experimental interest.     

Semiclassical Calculation of Recurrence Spectra of Li Rydberg Atom in Crossed Electric and Magnetic Field

Closed-orbit theory is a semiclassical technique for explaining the spectra of Rydberg atoms in external fields. Using the closed-orbit theory and classical perturbation theory, we calculate the scaled recurrence spectra of Lithium atom in magnetic field plus a weak perpendicular electric field. The results show when the crossed electric field is added, the recurrence spectra are weakened greatly. As the scaled electric field f increases, the peaks of the recurrence spectra lose strength. Some recurrences are very sensitive and fall off rapidly as f increases; others persist till much higher f . As the electric field is stronger, some of the peaks revive. This phenomenon, caused by the interference among the electron waves that return to the nucleus, can be computed from the azimuthal dependence of the classical closed orbits.

The closed orbits in the corresponding classical system have also been obtained.

Semiclassical Calculation of Recurrence Spectra of He Rydberg Atom in Strong External Fields

Using core-scattered closed-orbit theory and region-splitting iterative method, we calculated the scaled recurrence spectra of helium atom in parallel electric and magnetic fields. Closed orbits in the corresponding classical system have also been obtained. When we search the closed orbits, in order to remove the Coulomb singularity of the classical Hamiltonian motion equations, we implement the Kustaanheimo-Stiefel transformation, which transforms the system from a three-dimensional to a four-dimensional one. The Fourier transformed spectrum of helium atom has allowed direct comparison between peaks in such plot and the scaled action values of closed orbits. The results are compared with those of the hydrogen case, which shows that the core-scattered effects play an important role in the recurrence spectra of the multi-electron Rydberg atom.

Semiclassical calculation of Rydberg He2^＋ molecular of recurrence spectra ion in a magnetic field

Making use of the molecular closed-orbit theory and a new model potential for the Rydberg molecule, we have calculated the recurrence spectra of He^2＋ molecular ion in a magnetic field for different quantum defects. The Fourier transform spectra of He^2＋ molecular ion may be used to perform a direct comparison between peaks in the spectra and the scaled action values of closed orbits of the excited electron in external fields. We find that the spectral modulations can be analysed in terms of the scattering of the excited electron on the molecular core. Unlike the case of the Rydberg atom where the elastic scattering is predominant, modulations produced by inelastic scattering are also vital to the photoabsorption spectrum of the Rydberg molecule. Our results are in good agreement with the quantum results, which suggests that our method is correct.     

Recurrence spectra of He atoms in strong external fields

1 Introduction The photo-absorption phenomenon of high Rydberg atoms in strong external fields has attracted much attention in recent years. The semiclassical closed-orbit theory[1,2] developed by Du and Delos has been extensively used to explain this phenomenon.

Recurrence spectra of Li atom in strong external fields

Based upon our previous work [Commun. Theor. Phys.. 40,702 (2003)], we developed the closed orbit theory from two degrees of freedom to three non-separable degrees of freedom and calculated the recurrence spectra of Li Rydberg atom in strong perpendicular electric and magnetic fields. The Fourier transformed spectra of Li atom has allowed direct comparison between the resonance peaks and the scaled action values of closed orbits, whereas the nonhydrogenic resonance can be explained in terms of the new orbits created by the core scattering. The semiclassical result is in good agreement with the quantum one, which suggests that our calculation is correct.     

Recurrence spectra of non—hydrogen Rydberg atoms in paralled electric and magnetic fields

We present a new method for computing the recurrence spectra of n≈40, m=0 lithium Rydberg atoms in strong parallel external electric and magnetic fields. This method is based on an extended closed-orbit theory allowing the computation of the scattering of the electron by the ionic core. We pay particular attention to the scaling properties, which are extremely important for understanding the correspondence between classical and quantum mechanics. The spectra with a constant scaled electric field \tilde F=0.01 and a scaled energy ε=-0.03 are recorded and compared with those of hydrogen obtained by the standard closed-orbit theory. The result shows that the additional strong resonance structures can be interpreted in terms of the core-scattered classical closed orbits.     

Semiclassical calculation of ionisation rate for Rydberg helium atoms in an electric field

The ionisation of Rydberg helium atoms in an electric field above the classical ionisation threshold has been examined using the semiclassical method, with particular emphasis on discussing the influence of the core scattering on the escape dynamics of electrons. The results show that the Rydberg helium atoms ionise by emitting a train of electron pulses. Unlike the case of the ionisation of Rydberg hydrogen atom in parallel electric and magnetic fields, where the pulses of the electron are caused by the external magnetic field, the pulse trains for Rydberg helium atoms are created through core scattering. Each peak in the ionisation rate corresponds to the contribution of one core-scattered combination trajectory. This fact further illustrates that the ionic core scattering leads to the chaotic property of the Rydberg helium atom in external fields. Our studies provide a simple explanation for the escape dynamics in the ionisation of nonhydrogenic atoms in external fields.

Harmonic Inversion of Recurrence Spectra of Nonhydrogen Atom in an Electric Field

An extended harmonic inversion method is analytically continued to approach bifurcation region of the dosed orbits thus to obtain highly resolved spectra of lithium atom in external field. The suitable band-limited signal is generated by a semielassieal uniform approximation. By decimating the selected signal window and solving the algebraic set of nonlinear equations the quantum eigenvalues are properly fitted, which reveal the fine resonance structure hidden in low resolution spectrum. The study is made at the sealed energy ε= -2.7, relevant bifurcation effects and corescattered impacts have to be taken into account. It is demonstrated that the present method is a useful technique for the semiclassieal quantization of system with mixed regular-chaotic classical dynamics.     

Model Potential Calculations of Oscillator Strength Spectra of Rydberg Li Atoms in External Fields

By combining the B-spline basis set with model potential （B-spline ＋ MP）, we present oscillator strength spectra of Rydberg Li atoms in external fields. The photoabsorption spectra are analyzed. Over the narrow energy ranges considered in this paper, the structure of the spectra can be independent of the initial state chosen for a given atom. Our results are in good agreement with previous high-precision experimental data and theoretical calculations, where the R-matrix approach together with multichannel quantum defect theory （R-matrix＋MQDT） was used. It is suggested that the present methods can be applied to deal with the oscillator strength spectra of Rydberg atoms in crossed electric and magnetic fields.
