Marginally Unstable Periodic Orbits in Semiclassical Mushroom Billiards

By Jonathan Andreasen and others
Optical mushroom shaped billiards offer a unique opportunity to isolate and study non-dispersive, marginally unstable periodic orbits. Here we show that the openness of the cavity to external fields presents unanticipated consequences for the far-field distribution, including directional emission. This is mediated by interactions of marginally unstable periodic orbits with... Show more
