Semiclassical Quantization of Circular Billiard in Homogeneous Magnetic Field: Berry-tabor Approach
Semiclassical methods are accurate in general in leading order of , since they approximate quantum mechanics via canonical invariants. Often canonically noninvariant terms appear in the Schrödinger equation which are proportional to 2, therefore a discrepancy between different semiclassical trace formulas in order of 2 seems to be possible. We derive here the Berry-Tabor formula for a circular ...
متن کاملFrom semiclassical transport to quantum Hall effect under low-field Landau quantization
The crossover from the semiclassical transport to quantum Hall effect is studied by examining a two-dimensional electron system in an AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure. By probing the magneto-oscillations, it is shown that the semiclassical Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) formulation can be valid even when the minima of the longitudinal resistivity approach zero. The extension of the applicable range of the ...
متن کاملSemiclassical Quantization of Giant Gravitons
We study excited spherical branes (“giant gravitons”) in AdS × S spacetimes with background flux. For large excitation, these branes may be treated semiclassically. We compute their spectra using Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization and use the AdS/CFT correspondence to relate them to anomalous dimensions in the dual field theory at strong coupling, expressed as a series expansion in powers of 1/N . Th...
متن کاملBerry phase, hyperorbits, and the Hofstadter spectrum: Semiclassical dynamics in magnetic Bloch bands.
We have derived a new set of semiclassical equations for electrons in magnetic Bloch bands. The velocity and energy of magnetic Bloch electrons are found to be modified by the Berry phase and magnetization. This semiclassical approach is used to study general electron transport in a DC or AC electric field. We also find a close connection between the cyclotron orbits in magnetic Bloch bands and...
متن کاملSemiclassical quantization with bifurcating orbits
Bifurcations of classical orbits introduce divergences into semiclassical spectra which have to be smoothed with the help of uniform approximations. We develop a technique to extract individual energy levels from semiclassical spectra involving uniform approximations. As a prototype example, the method is shown to yield excellent results for photoabsorption spectra for the hydrogen atom in an e...
