The ground-state binding energies of a hydrogenic impurity in cylindrical quantum dots (QDs) subjected to external electric and magnetic fields are investigated using the finite-difference method within the quasi-one-dimensional effective potential model. The QD is modeled by superposing a square-well potential and a strong lateral confinement potential by the combination of a parabolic potential and a changeable magnetic field. We define an effective radius of a cylindrical QD which can describe the strength of the lateral confinement. The effects of the electric fields are less important when the effective radius is very tiny, and the effects are manifested as the effective radius increases. Meanwhile, one finds that the binding energies highly depend on the impurity positions under the applied transverse fields. When the impurity is located at the right half of the cylinder, the electric field pushes the electron to the left side, then the binding energy decreases; when the impurity is located at the left, the binding energy first increases and reaches a peak value, then deceases with the electric field.

The effect of phonon confinement on ground state binding energy of bound polaron in polar quantum wires with a finite confining potential investigated by Landau-Pekar variation technique. The effect of external electric and magnetic fields is taken into account as well. The obtained results show that the polar optical phonon confinement leads to a considerable enhancement of the polaron effect and these corrections increase with increasing of applied fields.

The first-excited-state (ES) binding energy of hydrogenic impurity bound polaron in an anisotropic quantum dot (QD) is obtained by constructing a variational wavefunction under the action of a uniform external electric field. As for a comparison, the ground-state (GS) binding energy of the system is also included. We apply numerical calculations to KBr QD with stronger electron–phonon (E–P) interaction in which the new variational wavefunction is adopted. We analyzed specifically the effects of electric field and the effects of both the position of the impurity and confinement lengths in the xy-plane and the [Formula: see text] direction on the ground and the first-ES binding energies (BEs). The results show that the selected trial wavefunction in the ES is appropriate and effective for the current research system.

A kinetic theory treatment of the influence of perpendicular magnetic and electric fields on the viscosity is given for a polar gas of symmetric top molecules. Expressions for the 9 independent viscosity coefficients are derived. In particular, the electric field influence on the transverse viscomagnetic pressure difference is studied.

Suppression of runaway of electrons in a weak, uniform electric field in a fully ionized Lorentz plasma by crossed magnetic and electric fields is analysed. A uniform, constant magnetic field parallel to a constant or harmonically time varying electric field does not alter runaway from that in the absence of the magnetic field. For crossed, constant fields the passage to runaway or to free motion as described by constant drift motion and spiral motion about the magnetic field is lengthened in time for strong magnetic fields. The new ‘runaway’ time scale is roughly the ratio of the cyclotron frequency to the collision frequency squared for cyclotron frequencies much greater than the collision frequency. All ‘runaway’ time scales may be given approximately by t2E Teff where tE is the characteristic time of the electric field and Teff is the ffective collision time as estimated from the appropriate component of the electrical conductivity.

The spectroscopical properties of hydrogen (H) and anti-hydrogen [Formula: see text] atoms in external electric and magnetic fields are discussed. This problem became important in connection with the recent experimental success in production of [Formula: see text] atoms. The main features of these experiments are briefly reviewed. The proposals for the search of the CPT violation via comparison of the H and [Formula: see text] spectra are shortly discussed. The spectroscopical differences between H and [Formula: see text] atoms in external magnetic fields and in parallel magnetic and electric fields are described in detail. It is proven that the positions of the maxima of the frequency distributions for transition probabilities in external electric field for H and [Formula: see text] atoms will deviate if the non-resonant corrections to the Lorentz line profile are taken into account.
