Super Shell Structure of the Magnetic Susceptibility
arXiv:physics/9807002 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.58.5622
Abstract
The magnetic susceptibility of electrons confined to a spherical cavity or a circular billiard shows slow oscillations as a function of the number of electrons, which are a new manifestation of the Super Shell Structure found in the free energy of metal clusters. The relationship of the oscillations of the two different quantities is analyzed by means of semiclassical calculations, which are in quantitative agreement with quantal results.
