On the classical analysis of spin-orbit coupling in hydrogenlike atoms
A. L. Kholmetskii, O. V. Missevitch, and T. Yarman
We reanalyze the usual classical derivation of spin-orbit coupling in hydrogenlike atoms. We point out the presence of an additional force exerted on a spinning electron due to the appearance of its electric dipole moment in the rest frame of the nucleus. This force has been ignored, although its in ... [Am. J. Phys. 78, 428 (2010)] published Thu Mar 11, 2010.
Electronic structure, Raman tensors, and resonance phenomena in a simple molecular model
M. Meyer, P. G. Etchegoin, and E. C. Le Ru
Some concepts in modern spectroscopy are very specialized, and explanations based on simple examples are not readily available. An example is the changes in the intrinsic symmetry of Raman tensors in molecules produced by resonance or near-resonance conditions. Many of these effects can be obtained ... [Am. J. Phys. 78, 300 (2010)] published Fri Feb 12, 2010.

Capture of particles undergoing discrete random walks
Robert M. Ziff, Satya N. Majumdar, and Alain Comtet
It is shown that particles undergoing discrete-time jumps in three dimensions, starting at a distance r from the center of an adsorbing sphere of radius R, are captured with probability (Rcsigma)/r for r>>R, where c is related to the Fourier transform of the scaled jump distribution and sigma is the ...

Spectroscopy, quantum chemistry and molecular physics
Robert S. Mulliken
CERTAIN AREAS OF RESEARCH that used to be actively pursued by people called physicists in physics laboratories have now to a large extent, although not entirely, migrated to chemistry laboratories. Among the most prominent of the areas that have moved from physics toward chemistry are molecular spec ... [Phys. Today 21, 52 (2009)] published Wed Jan 14, 2009.

The classical dynamics of Rydberg Stark atoms in momentum space
J. Murray-Krezan
The classical dynamics of a bound electron in a static electric field is discussed. The well-known HamiltonianJacobi equations are examined and reexpressed in momentum coordinates, the preferred coordinates for the interpretation of many experimental measurements. It is shown that the combined Coulo ... [Am. J. Phys. 76, 1007 (2008)] published Mon Oct 13, 2008.
