Abstract
The quadrupole moment of a hydrogen atom in a magnetic field for field strengths from 0 to 4.414e13 G is calculated by two different methods. The first method is variational, and based on a single trial function. The second method deals with a solution of the Schroedinger equation in the form of a linear combination of Landau orbitals.
