Localization of diffusive excitation in the two-dimensional hydrogen atom in a monochromatic field

Description

We present new data from numerical simulations of microwave excitation of a two-dimensional hydrogen atom, which show that in a wide parameter range under the one-dimensional delocalization border, the quantum localization phenomenon persists. We theoretically reconsider the problem of two-dimensional localization, by using an appropriately constructed four-dimensional map over an orbital period of the electron, and thus explain the numerical results
