A Reverberation Chamber (RC) is analyzed with techniques issued from the wave chaos domain. The first 200 modes are determined numerically: their cumulated number is separated into a smooth part, predicted by the Weyl formula, and an oscillating part, interpreted in term of periodic orbits. The technique of the nearest-neighbor spacing...

Wave chaos theory is used to study a modeled reverberation chamber (RC). The first 200 modes of an RC at a given stirrer position are determined by the finite element method, and the Weyl formula is checked for various RC geometries, from integrable to chaotic. The eigenfrequency spacing distribution varies according to the degree of ray chaos...
