Symplectic maps, variational principles, and transport

JD Meiss - Reviews of Modern Physics, 1992 - APS
Symplectic maps are the discrete-time analog of Hamiltonian motion. They arise in many
applications including accelerator, chemical, condensed-matter, plasma, and fluid physics …

Chaos-assisted tunneling

S Tomsovic, D Ullmo - Physical Review E, 1994 - APS
We discuss and give evidence for the existence of a new mechanism for quantum dynamical
tunneling. It may occur when a quantum system's underlying classical dynamics are far from …

distributions from regions or transition time distributions between regions in phase space …

Semiclassical quantization of the scattering from a classically chaotic repellor

P Gaspard, SA Rice - The Journal of chemical physics, 1989 - pubs.aip.org
The scattering of a point particle from three hard discs in a plane is studied in the
semiclassical approximation, using the Gutzwiller trace formula. Using a previously …
