Hall-Effect for Neutral Atoms

Abstract
It is shown that polarizable neutral systems can drift in crossed magnetic and electric fileds. The drift velocity is perpendicular to both fields, but contrary to the drif t velocity of a charged particle, it exists only, if fields vary in space or in time. We develop an adiabatic theory of this phenomenon and analyze conditions of its experimental observation. The most proper objects for the observation of this effect are Rydberg atoms. It can be applied for the separation of excited atoms.
