    Summary: We consider magnetic geodesic flows of normal metrics on a class of homogeneous spaces, in particular adjoint orbits of compact Lie groups. We give a proof of the non-commutative integrability of flows and show, in addition, for the case of adjoint orbits, the usual Liouville integrability by means of analytic integrals. We also consider the potential systems on adjoint orbits, which are generalizations of the magnetic spherical pendulum. The complete integrability of such system is proved for an arbitrary adjoint orbit of a compact semi-simple Lie group.
