We consider the density of states of Schr6dmger operators with a uniform magnetic field and a random potential with a Gaussian distribution. We show that the restriction to the states of the first Landau level is eqmvalent to a scaling hmit where one looks at the density of states near to the energy of the frst Landau level and simultaneously lets the strength of the coupling to the random potential go to zero. We also consider a different limit where we look at the suitably normalised density of states near to the energy of the first Landau level when the intensity of the magnetic field goes to mfimty.
