A Semiclassical Calculation of Scars for a Smooth Potential

chao-dyn 2009-10-22 v1 Chaotic Dynamics

Abstract

Bogomolny's formula for energy-smoothed scars is applied for the first time to a non-specific, non-scalable Hamiltonian, a 2-D anharmonic oscillator. The semiclassical theory reproduces well the exact quantal results over a large spatial and energy range.
