14. The field of atom optics as a testing ground for quantum chaos started with the theoretical proposal of R. Graham, M. Schlautmann, and P. Zoller, Phys. Rev. A 45, R19 (1992), followed by the experiment of PLRAAN

17. For the microwave-driven hydrogen atom, the continuum plays an important role. See, for example, F. Benvenuto, G. Casati, and D. L. Shepelyansky, Phys. Rev. A 55, 1732 (1997); PLRAAN

21. Another example is the ion in a Paul trap interacting with a standing light field. The ion is driven either by the explicit time dependence of the trap or of the standing wave.

25. In many systems such as the kicked rotor or the atom in the phase-modulated light wave, there is dynamical localization only in the momentum variable. See, for example, P. J. Bardroff, I. Bialynicki-Birula, D. S. Krähmer, G. Kurizki, E. Mayr, P. Stifter, and W. P. Schleich, Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 3959 (1995).PRLTAO
26. We indicate the physical variables with tildes, and we will drop all the tildes later when we introduce the dimensionless variables.

28. This value of (Formula presented) is also consistent with the commutation rela-tion (Formula presented) for the dimensionless canonical variables z and p.
