Abstract: | We study one-photon excitation of atomic Rydberg- and continuum states close to a photoionization threshold in the presence of a weak static external magnetic field. A semiclassical closed orbit representation for the atomic transition amplitudes is derived, which exhibits the connection between quantum mechanics and the classical dynamics of the excited electron whose motion under the combined influence of the Coulomb field of the ionic core and the magnetic field is chaotic. |
