[edit] hmmm... does this article have anything about quantum chaos in it?
I see lots on mechanics, in non-quantum chaos, and on this, on that, but where is the chaos?
==I agree. Lots of classical chaos - not a lot of quantum chaos. For instance, the most important thing to understand about quantum chaos is that it is not truly chaotic. Quantum mechanics is a linear theory and thus true chaos is impossible in it. If one examines the quantum equivalent of any simple classical chaotic system one finds that its behaviour stops being chaotic after a certain length of time - known as the break time. This article actually needs to say what quantum chaos is. --J S Lundeen 14:50, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm, I guess I could try and help out here, but it would be a while before I'd add anything in, I need to brush up on some notes first. Gagueci 16:28, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
