Abstract:
We measure the transmission and reflection amplitudes of microwaves in a resonator coupled to two antennas at room temperature in the regime of weakly overlapping resonances and in a frequency range of 3-16GHz . Below 10.1GHz the resonator simulates a chaotic quantum system. The distribution of the elements of the scattering matrix S is not Gaussian. The Fourier coefficients of S are used for a best fit of the autocorrelation function of S to a theoretical expression based on random-matrix theory. We find very good agreement below but not above 10.1GHz .
