Quantum Scaling Laws in the Onset of Dynamical Delocalization
Quantum Scaling Laws in the Onset of Dynamical Delocalization
We study the destruction of dynamical localization experimentally observed in an atomic realization of the kicked rotor by a deterministic Hamiltonian perturbation, with a temporal periodicity incommensurate with the principal driving. We show that the destruction is gradual, with well-defined scaling laws for the various classical and quantum parameters, in …
