In a 2DEG confined to two coaxial tubes the 'tube degree of freedom' can be described in terms of pseudospin-1/2 dynamics. The presence of tunneling between the two tubes leads to a collective oscillation known as pseudospin resonance. We employ perturbation theory to examine the dependence of the dispersion of this mode on a coaxial magnetic field for the case of small intertube distances. Coulomb interactions lead to a shift in the resonance frequency. The presence of the coaxial magnetic field gives rise to pronounced peaks in the shift of the resonance frequency. For large magnetic fields this shift vanishes due to the effects of Zeeman splitting.
