Semiclassical theory of the emission properties of wave-chaotic resonant cavities
Abstract
We develop a perturbation theory for the lifetime and emission intensity for isolated resonances in asymmetric resonant cavities. The inverse lifetime $Γ$ and the emission intensity $I(θ)$ in the open system are expressed in terms of matrix elements of operators evaluated with eigenmodes of the closed resonator. These matrix elements are calculated in a semiclassical approximation which allows us to represent $Γ$ and $I(θ)$ as sums over the contributions of rays which escape the resonator by refraction.
