Abstract
We demonstrate the use of a periodic train of half-cycle pulses to maintain strongly-localized wave packets in very-high-$n$ $(n\ensuremath{\sim}300)$ Rydberg atoms that travel in near-circular orbits about the nucleus. This motion can be followed for hundreds of orbital periods and mimics the original Bohr model of the hydrogen atom which envisioned an electron in circular classical orbit about the nucleus.
