3.3 Why do atoms radiate light?
... • This explains too, why atoms can be stable, although they have a rotational momentum (in the classical description they would always radiate light and thus be destroyed). This classical explanation results from the wrong picture, that the electron is moving through the orbital, leading to a steady ...

Charged Particle in Magnetic Saddle Point
... We study charged particles moving in two dimensions. From the perspective of solid state physics, this can be realised for electrons in semiconductor quantum wells. For the moment, we will ignore the quantum nature of the electron, and study classical dynamics in two dimensions. Now apply a perpendi ...
