We analyze photoexcitation of atoms by cylindrically polarized Bessel beams in the framework of density matrix theory based on the Liouville-von Neumann equation. In particular, we study the dependence of the population of excited atomic states on the direction of the external magnetic field for the case of the (5s ²S_1/2 (F=1) → 5p ²P_3/2 (F=0)) electric dipole transition in ⁸⁷Rb. Moreover, we demonstrate that the steady-state excited-state population is very sensitive not only to the polarization and OAM of the incoming light field, but also to the position of the atom within the beam cross-section. The results of our calculations agree well with the experimental findings of F. Castellucci et.al [Phys. Rev. Lett. 127, 233202 (2021)] and can be useful to plan future measurements.
