This study reanalyzes acoustic signal distortion experiments, finding scattering fidelity aligns with random matrix predictions for both chaotic and cuboid systems. This challenges typical assumptions about system dynamics and fidelity measurements.

Area of Science:

  • Acoustics
  • Wave physics
  • Statistical mechanics

Background:

  • The concept of scattering fidelity quantifies how wave properties change in a medium.
  • Previous experiments measured acoustic signal "distortion" (related to fidelity) under thermal variations.
  • Understanding fidelity is crucial for characterizing complex wave propagation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To reanalyze experimental data on acoustic signal distortion using the concept of scattering fidelity.
  • To compare experimental results with predictions from random matrix theory and semiclassical models.
  • To investigate the applicability of fidelity predictions to different system types, including chaotic and regular (cuboid) systems.

Main Methods:

  • Reanalysis of existing experimental data from Lobkis and Weaver (2003).

  • Application of random matrix theory to calculate standard fidelity.
  • Comparison of predicted perturbation strengths with experimental measurements.

    • Main Results:

    • Good agreement was found between experimental data and random matrix predictions for scattering fidelity in both samples.
    • The first sample, assumed chaotic, showed perturbation strengths consistent with semiclassical predictions.
    • The second sample, a perfect cuboid, surprisingly also agreed with random matrix predictions, though perturbation strengths were higher than predicted.

    Conclusions:

    • Scattering fidelity provides a useful metric for analyzing wave distortion in different systems.
    • The agreement with random matrix theory for the cuboid sample suggests broader applicability than previously assumed.
    • Discrepancies in perturbation strength for the cuboid warrant further investigation into system-specific dynamics.
