We determine with unprecedented accuracy the lowest 900 eigenvalues of two quantum constant-width billiards from resonance spectra measured with flat, superconducting microwave resonators. While the classical dynamics of the constant-width billiards is unidirectional, a change of the direction of motion is possible in the corresponding quantum system via dynamical tunneling. This becomes manifest in a splitting of the vast majority of resonances into doublets of nearly degenerate ones. The fluctuation properties of the two respective spectra are demonstrated to coincide with those of a random-matrix model for systems with violated time-reversal invariance and a mixed dynamics. Furthermore, we investigate tunneling in terms of the splittings of the doublet partners. On the basis of the random-matrix model we derive an analytical expression for the splitting distribution which is generally applicable to systems exhibiting dynamical tunneling between two regions with (predominantly) chaotic dynamics.

Numerical experiments of the statistical evolution of an ensemble of non-interacting particles in a time-dependent billiard with inelastic collisions, reveals the existence of three statistical regimes for the evolution of the speeds ensemble, namely , diffusion plateau, normal growth/exponential decay and stagnation. These regimes are linked numerically to the transition from Gauss-like to Boltzmann-like speed distributions. Further, the different evolution regimes are obtained analytically through velocity-space diffusion analysis. From these calculations the asymptotic root mean square of speed, initial plateau, and the growth/decay rates for intermediate number of collisions are determined in terms of the system parameters. The analytical calculations match the numerical experiments and point to a dynamical mechanism for thermalization, where inelastic collisions and a high-dimensional phase space lead to a bounded diffusion in the velocity space towards a stationary distribution function with a kind of reservoir temperature determined by the boundary oscillation amplitude and the restitution coefficient.
We study distributions of the ratios of level spacings of a rectangular and an Africa-shaped superconducting microwave resonator containing circular scatterers on a triangular grid, so-called Dirac billiards (DBs). The high-precision measurements all owed the determination of all 1651 and 1823 eigenfrequencies in the first two bands, respectively. The resonance densities are similar to that of graphene. They exhibit two sharp peaks at the van Hove singularities, that separate the band structure into regions with a linear and a quadratic dispersion relation, respectively. In their vicinity we observe rapid changes, e.g., in the wavefunction structure. Accordingly, the question arose, whether there the spectral properties are still determined by the shapes of the DBs. The commonly used statistical measures, however, are no longer applicable whereas, as demonstrated in this Letter, the ratio distributions provide most suitable ones.

Experiments with superconducting microwave cavities have been performed in our laboratory for more than two decades. The purpose of the present article is to recapitulate some of the highlights achieved. We briefly review (i) results obtained with fl at, cylindrical microwave resonators, so-called microwave billiards, concerning the universal fluctuation properties of the eigenvalues of classically chaotic systems with no, a threefold and a broken symmetry; (ii) summarize our findings concerning the wave-dynamical chaos in three-dimensional microwave cavities; (iii) present a new approach for the understanding of the phenomenon of dynamical tunneling which was developed on the basis of experiments that were performed recently with unprecedented precision, and finally, (iv) give an insight into an ongoing project, where we investigate universal properties of (artificial) graphene with superconducting microwave photonic crystals that are enclosed in a microwave resonator, i.e., so-called Dirac billiards.

We consider classical billiards on surfaces of constant curvature, where the charged billiard ball is exposed to a homogeneous, stationary magnetic field perpendicular to the surface. We establish sufficient conditions for hyperbolicity of the bill iard dynamics, and give lower estimation for the Lyapunov exponent. This extends our recent results for non-magnetic billiards on surfaces of constant curvature. Using these conditions, we construct large classes of magnetic billiard tables with positive Lyapunov exponents on the plane, on the sphere and on the hyperbolic plane.
We apply a molecular dynamics scheme to analyze classically chaotic properties of a two-dimensional circular billiard system containing two Coulomb-interacting electrons. As such, the system resembles a prototype model for a semiconductor quantum dot . The interaction strength is varied from the noninteracting limit with zero potential energy up to the strongly interacting regime where the relative kinetic energy approaches zero. At weak interactions the bouncing maps show jumps between quasi-regular orbits. In the strong-interaction limit we find an analytic expression for the bouncing map. Its validity in the general case is assessed by comparison with our numerical data. To obtain a more quantitative view on the dynamics as the interaction strength is varied, we compute and analyze the escape rates of the system. Apart from very weak or strong interactions, the escape rates show consistently exponential behavior, thus suggesting strongly chaotic dynamics and a phase space without significant sticky regions within the considered time scales.
