Wigner time-delay distribution in chaotic cavities and freezing transition
Abstract
Using the joint distribution for proper time-delays of a chaotic cavity derived by Brouwer, Frahm & Beenakker [Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 4737 (1997)], we obtain, in the limit of large number of channels N, the large deviation function for the distribution of the Wigner time-delay (the sum of proper times) by a Coulomb gas method. We show that the existence of a power law tail originates from narrow resonance contributions, related to a (second order) freezing transition in the Coulomb gas.
