We have measured resonance spectra in a superconducting microwave cavity with the shape of a three-dimensional generalized Bunimovich stadium billiard and analyzed their spectral fluctuation properties. The experimental length spectrum exhibits contributions from periodic orbits of non-generic modes and from unstable periodic orbit of the underlying classical system. It is well reproduced by our theoretical calculations based on the trace formula derived by Balian and Duplantier for chaotic electromagnetic cavities.

A microwave experiment has been realized to measure the phase difference of the oscillating electric field at two points inside the cavity. The technique has been applied to a dissipative resonator which exhibits a singularity -- called exceptional point -- in its eigenvalue and eigenvector spectrum. At the singularity, two modes coalesce with a phase difference of $pi/2 .$ We conclude that the state excited at the singularity has a definitiv chirality.
We demonstrate the strong coupling between an electron spin ensemble and a three-dimensional cavity in a reflection geometry. We also find that an anticrossing in the cavity/spin spectrum can be observed under conditions that the collective coupling strength $g_c$ is smaller than the spin linewidth $gamma_s$ or the cavity linewidth. We identify a ratio of $g_c$ to $gamma_s$ ($g_c/gamma_s >$ 0.64) as a condition to observe a splitting in the cavity frequency. Finally, we confirm that $g_c$ scales with $sqrt{N}$, where $N$ is the number of polarized spins.
We discuss the concept of Direct Chaotic Communication (DCC). The scheme is based on the following ideas: (1) the chaotic source generates chaotic oscillations directly in the specified microwave band; (2) information component is input by means of formation of the appropriate stream of chaotic radio pulses; (3) envelope detection is used. The principle of communication scheme is confirmed experimentally in microwave band. The transmission rates of 3.34, 10.0 and up to 70.0 Mbps are demonstrated. his only looks like the abstract.
Billiard systems offer a simple setting to study regular and chaotic dynamics. Gravitational billiards are generalizations of these classical billiards which are amenable to both analytical and experimental investigations. Most previous work on gravitational billiards has been concerned with two dimensional boundaries. In particular the case of linear boundaries, also known as the wedge billiard, has been widely studied. In this work, we introduce a three dimensional version of the wedge; that is, we study the nonlinear dynamics of a billiard in a constant gravitational field colliding elastically with a linear cone of half angle $theta$. We derive a two-dimensional Poincar{e} map with two parameters, the half angle of the cone and $ell$, the $z$-component of the billiards angular momentum. Although this map is sufficient to determine the future motion of the billiard, the three-dimensional nature of the physical trajectory means that a periodic orbit of the mapping does not always correspond to a periodic trajectory in coordinate space. We demonstrate several integrable cases of the parameter values, and analytically compute the systems fixed point, analyzing the stability of this orbit as a function of the parameters as well as its relation to the physical trajectory of the billiard. Next, we explore the phase space of the system numerically. We find that for small values of $ell$ the conic billiard exhibits behavior characteristic of two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian systems with a discontinuity, and the dynamics is qualitatively similar to that of the wedge billiard, although the correspondence is not exact. As we increase $ell$ the dynamics becomes on the whole less chaotic, and the correspondence with the wedge billiard is lost.
We present an experimental and numerical study of missing-level statistics of chaotic three-dimensional microwave cavities. The nearest-neighbor spacing distribution, the spectral rigidity, and the power spectrum of level fluctuations were investigated. We show that the theoretical approach to a problem of incomplete spectra does not work well when the incompleteness of the spectra is caused by unresolved resonances. In such a case the fraction of missing levels can be evaluated by calculations based on random matrix theory.
