Abstract
By the employment of "constant-scaled-energy spectroscopy" as a novel spectroscopic technique, the quasi-Landau resonance system of the diamagnetic H atom in even-partity magnetic final states is observed for the first time in its entirety from the regular into the chaotic quasi-Landau regime. It evolves, fully unexpectedly, into a systematically structured hierarchy of generations of resonances, correlated to three physically different types of closed classical orbits.
