Abstract
The spectra of quantum dots of different geometries (quantum ring, quantum cylinder, spherical square well, and parabolic) are studied. The stochastic variational method on correlated Gaussian basis functions and a large scale shell-model approach have been used to investigate these “artificial” atoms and their properties in magnetic fields. Accurate numerical results are presented for electron systems.
