Abstract

It is demonstrated that, for the recently introduced classical magnetized Kepler problems in dimension 2k+12k+1, the non-colliding orbits in the "external configuration space" R2k+1{0}\mathbb R^{2k+1}\setminus\{\mathbf 0\} are all conics, moreover, a conic orbit is an ellipse, a parabola, and a branch of a hyperbola according as the total energy is negative, zero, and positive. It is also demonstrated that the Lie group \mrSO+(1,2k+1)×\bbR+{\mr {SO}}^+(1,2k+1)\times {\bb R}_+ acts transitively on both the set of oriented elliptic orbits and the set of oriented parabolic orbits.
