Bayesian analysis of level-spacing distributions for chaotic systems with broken symmetry.
Bayesian inference is applied to the nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor spacing distributions of levels of coupled superconducting microwave billiards. The weakly coupled resonators are equivalent to a quantum system with a partially broken symmetry. The coupling parameters are obtained with help from Bayes's theorem. This procedure does not require the introduction of a set of bins. The results are more accurate than those obtained from other bin-independent procedures.
