Temporal flooding of regular islands by chaotic wave packets

Temporal flooding of regular islands by chaotic wave packets

We investigate the time evolution of wave packets in systems with a mixed phase space where regular islands and chaotic motion coexist. For wave packets started in the chaotic sea on average the weight on a quantized torus of the regular island increases due to dynamical tunneling. This flooding weight …
