Chaotic scattering and transmission fluctuations. (English) Zbl 0741.58053

The authors studied the consequences of the classical chaotic dynamics on the propagation of waves in simple devices. Using S matrix method they prove that the transmission and reflection coefficient fluctuate when the wavelength is varied. The statistics of the fluctuations follow the predictions of the theory of random matrices.
