Diffractive orbits in quantum billiards
arXiv:chao-dyn/9505011 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.75.61
Abstract
We study diffractive effects in two dimensional polygonal billiards. We derive an analytical trace formula accounting for the role of non-classical diffractive orbits in the quantum spectrum. As an illustration the method is applied to a triangular billiard.
