Effect of short ray trajectories on the scattering statistics of wave chaotic systems.
In many situations, the statistical properties of wave systems with chaotic classical limits are well described by random matrix theory. However, applications of random matrix theory to scattering problems require introduction of system-specific information into the statistical model, such as the introduction of the average scattering matrix in the Poisson kernel. Here, it is shown that the average impedance matrix, which also characterizes the system-specific properties, can be expressed in terms of classical trajectories that travel between ports and thus can be calculated semiclassically. Theoretical results are compared with numerical solutions for a model wave chaotic system.
