Note on de Haas-van Alphen diamagnetism in thin, free-electron films

We revisit the problem of de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) diamagnetic susceptibility oscillations in a thin, free-electron film trapped in a synthetic harmonic potential well. A treatment of this phenomenon at zero temperature was announced many years ago by Childers and Pincus (designated hereafter as CP...
