Popis: International audience; Electrons on the helium surface display sharp resonant absorption lines related to the transitions between the subbands of quantized motion transverse to the surface. A magnetic field parallel to the surface strongly affects the absorption spectrum. We show that the effect comes from admixing the out-of-plane motion to the in-plane quantum dynamics of the strongly correlated electron liquid or a Wigner crystal. This is similar to the admixing electron transitions in color centers to phonons. The spectrum permits a direct characterization of the many-electron dynamics and also enables testing the theory of color centers in a system with a controllable coupling.
