Ehrenfest times for classically chaotic systems
P. G. Silvestrov, C. W. J. Beenakker
We describe the quantum mechanical spreading of a Gaussian wave packet by means of the semiclassical WKB approximation of Berry and Balazs. We find that the time scale on which…
Electromechanical noise in a diffusive conductor
A. V. Shytov, L. S. Levitov, C. W. J. Beenakker
Electrons moving in a conductor can transfer momentum to the lattice via collisions with impurities and boundaries, giving rise to a fluctuating mechanical stress tensor. The root-…
Dynamic effect of phase conjugation on wave localization
K. J. H. van Bemmel, M. Titov, C. W. J. Beenakker
We investigate what would happen to the time dependence of a pulse reflected by a disordered single-mode waveguide, if it is closed at one end not by an ordinary mirror but by a ph…
Golden rule decay versus Lyapunov decay of the quantum Loschmidt echo
Ph. Jacquod, P. G. Silvestrov, C. W. J. Beenakker
The overlap of two wave functions evolving in time with slightly different Hamiltonians decays exponentially, for perturbation strengths greater than the level spacing. We present…
Microscopic versus mesoscopic local density of states in one-dimensional localization
H. Schomerus, M. Titov, P. W. Brouwer +1
We calculate the probability distribution of the local density of states in a disordered one-dimensional conductor or single-mode waveguide, attached at one end to an electron…
Manipulation of photon statistics of highly degenerate chaotic radiation
M. Kindermann, Yu. V. Nazarov, C. W. J. Beenakker
Highly degenerate chaotic radiation has a Gaussian density matrix and a large occupation number of modes . If it is passed through a weakly transmitting barrier, its counting s…
