dc.descriptionWe consider Lifshits' model of a quantum particle subject to a repulsive Poissonian random potential and address various issues related to the influence of a constant magnetic field on the leading low-energy tail of the integrated density of states. In particular, we propose the magnetic analog of a $ 40 $-year-old landmark result of Lifshits for short-ranged single-impurity potentials $ U $. The Lifshits tail is shown to change its character from purely quantum, through quantum-classical, to purely classical with increasing range of $ U $. This systematics is explained by the increasing importance of the classical fluctuations of the particle's potential energy in comparison to the quantum fluctuations associated with its kinetic energy.
