Abstract

In this work we develop a model based on the double solution theory of de Broglie in order to reproduce the famous Landau levels splitting in a constant magnetic field.

A classical analog of the quantum Zeeman effect

P. Jamet, Aurélien Drezet

We extend a recent classical mechanical analog of Bohr's atom consisting of a scalar field coupled to a massive point-like particle [P. Jamet and A. Drezet, "A mechanical analog of Bohr's atom based on de Broglie's double-solution approach," Chaos 31, 103120 (2021)] by adding and studying the contribution of a uniform weak magnetic field on their dynamics. In doing so, we are able to recover the splitting of the energy levels of the atom called Zeeman's effect within the constraints of our model and in agreement with the semiclassical theory of Sommerfeld. This result is obtained using Larmor's theorem for both the field and the particle, associating magnetic effects with inertial Coriolis forces in a rotating frame of reference. Our work, based on the old "double solution" theory of de Broglie, shows that a dualistic model involving a particle guided by a scalar field can reproduce the normal Zeeman effect.

A mechanical analog of Bohr’s atom based on de Broglie’s double-solution approach

P. Jamet, Aurélien Drezet

Motivated by recent developments of hydrodynamical quantum mechanical analogs [J. W. M. Bush, Annu. Rev. Fluid Mech. 47, 269-292 (2015)], we provide a relativistic model for a classical particle coupled to a scalar wave field through a holonomic constraint. In the presence of an external Coulomb field, we define a regime where the particle is guided by the wave in a way similar to the old de Broglie phase-wave proposal. Moreover, this dualistic mechanical analog of the quantum theory is reminiscent of the double-solution approach suggested by de Broglie in 1927 and is able to reproduce the Bohr-Sommerfeld semiclassical quantization formula for an electron moving in an atom.
