Abstract: Let $M$ be a compact real-analytic manifold, equipped with a real-analytic Riemannian metric $g,$ and let $$ be a closed real-analytic 2-form on $M$, interpreted as a magnetic field. Consider the Hamiltonian flow on $T^{\ast }M$ that describes a charged particle moving in the magnetic field $$. Following an idea of T. Thiemann, we construct a complex structure on a tube inside $T^{\ast }M$ by pushing forward the vertical polarization by the Hamiltonian flow "evaluated at time $i$." This complex structure fits together with $$ to give a Kaehler structure on a tube inside $T^{\ast }M$. We describe this magnetic complex structure in terms of its $(1,0)$-tangent bundle, at the level of holomorphic functions, and via a construction using the embeddings of Whitney-Bruhat and Grauert, which is a magnetic analogue to the analytic continuation of the geometric exponential map. We describe an antiholomorphic intertwiner between this complex structure and the complex structure induced by $$, and we give two formulas for local Kaehler potentials, which depend on a local choice of vector potential 1-form for $$. When $$, our magnetic complex structure is the adapted complex structure of Lempert-SzH{o}ke and Guillemin-Stenzel. We compute the magnetic complex structure explicitly for constant magnetic fields on $mathbb{R}^2$ and $S^2.$ In the $mathbb{R}^2$ case, the magnetic adapted complex structure for a constant magnetic field is related to work of Kr"otz-Thangavelu-Xu on heat kernel analysis on the Heisenberg group.
