Energy levels are presented for the ten excited states, 2so, 3d＇0, 3po, 3p-1, 3d_1, 4d-1, 3d-2, 4d-2, 4f-2 , and 5f-2 as a function of magnetic field strengths with a range from zero up to 2.35 × 10^6 T. The obtained results are compared with available high accuracy theoretical data reported in the literature and found to be in excellent agreement. The comparison also shows that the current method can produce energy levels with an accuracy higher than the existing high accuracy method [Phys. Rev. A 54 （1996） 287]. Here high accuracy energy levels are for the first time reported for the 3d＇0, 4d-1, 4d-2, 4f-2, and 5f-2 states.展开更多

This scheme can produce high accuracy energy levels and valid for an arbitrary magnetic field. Energy levels of hydrogen are presented for circular Rydberg states with azimuthal quantum numbers ｜m｜ =10-70 as a function of magnetic field strengths ranging from zero to 2.35 × 10^9 T. The variation of spatial distributions of electron probability densities with magnetic field strengths is discussed and competition between Coulomb and magnetic interactions is illustrated.展开更多
