Quantum signatures of partial barriers in phase space / Quantensignaturen partieller Barrieren im Phasenraum

Michler, Matthias 12 October 2011 (has links) (PDF)
Generic Hamiltonian systems have a mixed phase space, in which regular and chaotic motion coexist. In the chaotic sea the classical transport is limited by partial barriers, which allow for a flux \Phi given by the corresponding turnstile area. Quantum mechanically the transport is suppressed if Planck's constant is large compared to the classical flux, h >> \Phi, while for h << \Phi classical transport is recovered. For the transition between these limiting cases there are many open questions, in particular concerning the correct scaling parameter and the width of the transition. To investigate this transition in a controlled way, we design a kicked system with a particularly simple phase-space structure, consisting of two chaotic regions separated by one dominant partial barrier. We find a universal scaling with the single parameter \Phi/h and a transition width of almost two orders of magnitude in \Phi/h. In order to describe this transition, we consider several matrix models. While the numerical data is not well described by the random matrix model proposed by Bohigas, Tomsovic, and Ullmo, a deterministic 2x2-model, a channel coupling model, and a unitary model are presented, which describe the transitional behavior of the designed kicked system. This is also confirmed for the generic standard map, suggesting a universal scaling behavior for the quantum transition of a partial barrier. / Generische Hamilton'sche Systeme besitzen einen gemischten Phasenraum, in dem sowohl reguläre als auch chaotische Dynamik vorkommen. Der klassische Transport in der chaotischen See wird durch partielle Barrieren begrenzt, die nur einen Fluss \Phi hindurch lassen. Der quantenmechanische Transport ist stark unterdrückt, wenn die Planck'sche Konstante groß gegen den klassischen Fluss ist, h >> \Phi. Ist hingegen h << \Phi folgt die Quantenmechanik der klassischen Dynamik. Für den Übergangsbereich zwischen diesen Grenzfällen gibt es noch viele offene Fragen, insbesondere bezüglich des richtigen Skalierungsparameters und der Breite des Übergangs. Um gezielt diesen Übergang zu untersuchen, haben wir ein System mit einem besonders einfachen Phasenraum entworfen. Er besteht aus zwei chaotischen Gebieten, die durch eine dominante partielle Barriere getrennt sind. Es zeigt sich, dass das universelle Verhalten durch den Parameter \Phi/h beschrieben wird und der Übergang sich über zwei Größenordnungen erstreckt. Wir betrachten verschiedene Matrixmodelle um diesen Übergang zu verstehen. Die numerischen Daten werden nicht durch das Zufallsmatrixmodell von Bohigas, Tomsovic und Ullmo beschrieben. Ein deterministisches 2x2-Modell, eine Kanalkopplung und ein unitäres Matrixmodell beschreiben hingegen den Übergang des entworfenen gekickten Systems. Die Tatsache, dass auch die generische Standardabbildung diesem Verhalten folgt, spricht für ein universelles Verhalten des Quantenübergangs einer partiellen Barriere.

On the other hand, several studies demonstrated the importance of lipids in brain structure and activity. Epilepsy is a pathology related to the brain activity disorder, with high rate of refractoriness to conventional therapeutics, in these cases hyperlipidic diet has been used such an alternative treatment. Therefore, the investigation of possible interference from hyperlipidemic diets in TLE can add new perspectives in understanding the behavior and treatment of this pathology. In the present study we used mathematical computational methods to analyze electrographic patterns of rats in status epilepticus induced by pilocarpine fed with hyperlipidic diet. These rats were analyzed through electrographic parameters using ECoG records and determining: energies of power spectrum in the frequency of delta, theta, alpha and beta waves; Lempel-Ziv complexity; and fractal dimension of phase space. Status epilepticus induced changes in the encephalographic pattern measured by distribution of main brain waves using power spectrum, Lempel-Ziv complexity and fractal dimension of phase space. Hyperlipidic diet in normal rats also changed the values of brain waves energy in power spectrum and Lempel-Ziv complexity; however, fractal dimension of phase space showed no significant differences due to hyperlipidic diet treatment. Despite the hyperlipidic diet reduced brain activity before pilocarpine administration, the nutritional status did not change the encephalographic pattern during status epilepticus. In conclusion, hyperlipidic diet induced slower brain waves and decreased the complexity of brain activity, opposite effects of status epilepticus. Therefore, the mathematical methods were effective to detect brain hyperactivity caused by status epilepticus and reduced brain activity induced by hyperlipidic diet. / O aumento do consumo de dietas hiperlipídicas vem elevando os índices de obesidade e os níveis de colesterol e triglicerídeos de grande parte da população, além de estar relacionado ao desenvolvimento de doenças neurodegenerativas, como a doença de Alzheimer. Por outro lado muitas pesquisas têm comprovado a importância dos lipídeos na estrutura e atividade do cérebro. A epilepsia é uma patologia relacionada à desordem da atividade cerebral, com alto índice de refratariedade a medicamentos convencionais, nesses casos, o consumo de dietas hiperlipídica vem sendo utilizado como uma terapia alternativa. A investigação de possíveis interferências de dietas hiperlipídicas na ELT pode acrescentar novas perspectivas na compreensão do comportamento e tratamento desta condição patológica. Nesse trabalho foram analisados ratos em status epilepticus induzido pela pilocarpina submetidos à dieta hiperlipídica. Esses ratos foram analisados através de parâmetros eletrográficos utilizando os registros de ECoG e determinando as energias do seu espectro de potência nas freqüências das ondas delta, teta, alfa e beta; a complexidade de Lempel-Ziv e a dimensão fractal do espaço de fase. O status epilepticus induziu alterações no padrão encefalográfico mensuradas pela distribuição de energia das principais ondas cerebrais utilizando o espectro de potência, a complexidade de Lempel-Ziv e a dimensão fractal do espaço de fase. A dieta hiperlipídica, em ratos normais, também alterou os valores da energia das ondas cerebrais no espectro de potência e na complexidade de Lempel-Ziv; entretanto, a dimensão fractal do espaço de fase não revelou diferenças significativas devido ao tratamento com a dieta hiperlipídica. Apesar da dieta hiperlipídica ter reduzido a atividade cerebral antes da administração da pilocarpina, a condição nutricional não influenciou o padrão encefalográfico durante o status epilepticus. Em conclusão, a dieta hiperlipídica causou uma desaceleração das ondas cerebrais e diminuição da complexidade da atividade cerebral, efeitos contrários aos do status epilepticus. Portanto, os métodos matemáticos utilizados foram eficientes na detecção da hiperatividade cerebral causada pelo status epilepticus e redução da atividade cerebral induzida pela dieta hiperlipídica.

Ciclones subtropicais sobre o Atlântico Sul: análise da estrutura dinâmica de eventos / Subtropical cyclones over the South Atlantic: analysis of the dynamic structure of some events

Lívia Márcia Mosso Dutra 15 March 2012 (has links)
Neste trabalho, o objetivo geral é investigar os processos sinóticos, dinâmicos e termodinâmicos de dois ciclones subtropicais ocorridos no Atlântico Sul. Utilizou-se um algoritmo de rastreamento de máximos de vorticidade ciclônica e o algoritmo Cyclone Phase Space (CPS), que permite classificar o ciclo de vida dos ciclones. Desenvolveu-se um processo de automatização destes algoritmos, que possibilitou a análise dos diagramas de fase de todos os ciclones ocorridos no Atlântico Subtropical durante 2008, 2009 e março de 2010. As condições sinóticas para dois eventos foram analisadas desde o período prévio à formação até o decaimento dos sistemas, e as equações do balanço de vorticidade e de calor foram utilizadas para investigar os processos dinâmicos e termodinâmicos. Embora com fraca intensidade em termos de pressão central, os ciclones tiveram impacto importante nas condições de tempo sobre suas regiões de atuação, e os ventos máximos superaram 15 m/s em 925 hPa por várias horas. Ambos os ciclones apresentaram, ao menos em algum tempo de sua fase subtropical, um pico de advecção horizontal quente em altos níveis, enquanto a advecção horizontal quente em baixos níveis apresentou fraca intensidade. Nos estágios de fase híbrida, o termo diabático foi responsável pelas tendências de aquecimento em baixos níveis. Já durante a fase de transição extratropical ocorrida em um dos ciclones, o sentido dos fluxos turbulentos em superfície se inverteu e o termo diabático passou a contribuir para tendências de resfriamento em baixos níveis. Em altos níveis, foram encontradas regiões em que altos valores positivos do termo diabático da equação da termodinâmica correspondem a regiões de intenso resíduo negativo da equação da vorticidade. Nestas regiões, os processos convectivos podem explicar os imbalanços de vorticidade. Nas demais regiões e níveis em que esta relação não ocorreu, sugere-se que a convecção influencia as variações locais de vorticidade de uma forma mais distribuída na coluna atmosférica, assim como a divergência associada aos movimentos verticais pode ocorrer de forma distribuída ao longo da troposfera. / This work aims to investigate the synoptic and dynamic processes of a sample of subtropical cyclones that occurred near the east coast of South America. A cyclonic vorticity maximum tracking algorithm and the Cyclone Phase Space (CPS) algorithm are used to track and to classify the life cycle evolution of the cyclones. By automating these algorithms, it was possible to perform the analysis of the phase diagrams of all the cyclones occurred in the Subtropical Atlantic during 2008, 2009 and March 2010. The synoptic conditions for two events were analyzed from the period prior to the genesis until the decay of the systems, and the heat and vorticity balance equations were used to investigate the thermodynamic and dynamic processes. Although with low intensity in terms of central pressure, the cyclones had a major impact on the weather conditions in their regions of occurrence, and the 925 hPa maximum sustained winds exceeded 15 m/s for several hours. Both selected cyclones, at least at a time of its subtropical phase, had a peak of warm horizontal advection at higher levels, whilst the warm horizontal advection at lower levels showed weak intensity. In the hybrid stages of both cyclones, the diabatic term was responsible for warming trends at low levels. However, during the extratropical transition in one of the cyclones, the direction of the near-surface turbulent fluxes reversed and the diabatic term began to contribute to cooling trends at low levels. In the upper troposphere, it was found that in some regions that featured large positive values of the thermodynamic equation diabatic term, there was also a significant negative residual of the vorticity equation. In these regions, the convective processes can explain the observed vorticity imbalances. For other regions and levels, at which there was no direct relationship between the residual fields, it is suggested here that convection influences the local variations of vorticity in a more distributed way in the atmospheric column, as well as the divergence associated with the vertical velocities can be more distributed throughout the troposphere, without being concentrated at only some levels.

Tanto na mecânica quântica quanto na clássica, elementos similares, tal como densidades de probabilidade, podem ser definidos e usados para comparar ambos regimes. Neste trabalho construímos a partir de primeiros princípios uma corrente quântica no espaço de fase na representação de estados coerentes canônicos. Determinamos a corrente quântica para sistemas sob evolução de uma hamiltoniana genérica e mostramos que ela pode ser expandida numa série de potências em $hbar$ cujo termo de ordem mais baixa é a corrente clássica. Calculamos analiticamente a corrente para alguns sistemas uni-dimensionais simples. A corrente quântica apresenta propriedades não-clássicas, por exemplo, inversão de momento e surgimento de novos pontos de estagnação aos pares durante a dinâmica. Mostramos que estes pares são compostos por um ponto de sela, que é um zero da densidade de probabilidade e possui uma carga topológica de -1, e por um vórtice, que possui carga +1. Ambos pontos constituem o que denominamos dipolo topológico. Analisamos o papel destes dipolos no espalhamento de uma partícula por uma barreira gaussiana e mostramos que suas localizações em relação às superfícies de energia clássicas e em relação aos máximos da densidade de probabilidade são assinaturas de tunelamento / Abstract: Phase space representations are widely used tools to study and simulate the quantum dynamics of systems, mainly due to its natural classical appeal. In both classical and quantum mechanics, corresponding but not equivalent structures, such as probability densities, can be defined and explored to compare both dynamical regimes. In this work, we constructed from first principles the quantum phase space current for a quantum system in the canonical coherent states representation. We determined the quantum current for systems evolving under a general Hamiltonian, and we showed that the current can be expanded as a power series in $hbar$, whose lowest order term is the classsical current. We also calculated analytically the quantum current for simple one-dimensional systems. The quantum current presents non-classical features, such as momentum inversion and emergence of new stagnation points which appear in pairs during the dynamics. We showed that the pairs are composed by a saddle point, which is a zero of the phase space probability density and bears a topological charge -1, and a vortex, with charge +1. Both points constitute what we named a topological dipole. We analysed the role the dipoles play in the scattering of a particle by a gaussian barrier, and we showed that the location of the dipoles in relation to the classical energy surfaces and the quantum probability density maxima is a fingerprint of quantum tunneling / Doutorado / Física / Doutor em Ciências / 2013/02248-0 / 157615/2011-1 / FAPESP / CNPQ

Detecção de patologias em pregas vocais utilizando a seção Poincaré do espaço de fase tridimensional de um sinal de voz / Detection of pathologies in vocal fold by means of Poincaré section of the tridimensional phase space of a voice signal

Fernando Araujo de Andrade Sobrinho 02 September 2016 (has links)
Diversos estudos foram realizados para detecção de patologias na laringe. Essas patologias causam alteração na frequência, amplitude e formato de onda do sinal de voz e podem ser estudadas através dos parâmetros convencionais de análise como jitter e shimmer, ou sob o enfoque da dinâmica não linear. Essas técnicas são não invasivas e servem de apoio ao especialista da área de fonoaudiologia para o diagnóstico de patologias nas pregas vocais. As técnicas de análise acústica baseiam-se no formato de onda vocal no domínio do tempo e domínio da frequência, enquanto que a técnica de análise não linear utilizada nesse trabalho baseia-se no atrator reconstruído do sinal de voz. O objetivo dessa tese é diferenciar vozes normais e patológicas e entre patologias usando a técnica de análise não linear conhecida como Seção de Poincaré. Foram analisados 48 sinais de vozes humanas, divididos em 3 grupos (16 normais, 16 com nódulo e 16 com edema de Reinke). Em seguida foram selecionados 3 trechos de 500 ms nos intervalos 0.5s-1.0s, 2.0s-2.5s e 4.0s-4.5s chamado de primeiro critério e um trecho 500ms no trecho de maior variação de pitch, chamado de segundo critério. Em seguida, o atrator foi reconstruído em 3 dimensões, determinado o atrator médio, e de cada ponto do atrator médio foi extraída a seção de Poincaré. De cada seção de Poincaré foi calculada a dispersão dos pontos do atrator no plano através da média e desvio padrão das dispersão dos pontos da seção de Poincaré em relação ao ponto médio da seção. A validação da ferramenta desenvolvida para essa tese foi realizada utilizando um sinal senoidal inserindo jitter gradativamente, onde verificou-se uma variação proporcional da média da dispersão. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que não foi possível diferenciar patologias mas foi possível classificar vozes normais das patológicas. O melhor intervalo para classificar as vozes normais das patológicas utilizando o primeiro critério foi entre 0.5s-1.0s pois nesse intervalo todas as vozes normais foram classificadas corretamente. No entanto, 6 vozes patológicas foram classificadas como normais com 2 vozes patológicas na fronteira que separa as vozes normais das patológicas. O segundo critério classificou todas as vozes normais corretamente e apenas uma voz patológica foi classificada como patológica. Concluiu-se que a ferramenta proposta utilizando o segundo critério mostrou-se superior em relação ao primeiro critério para diferenciar vozes normais das patológicas. / Several studies have been performed to detect pathologies of the larynx. These pathologies cause changes in the frequency, amplitude, and waveform of the voice signal. They can be studied by means of conventional analysis parameters such as jitter and shimmer, or from nonlinear dynamics concepts. These techniques are noninvasive and can help the speech therapist to better diagnose the pathologies in the vocal folds. The acoustic analysis techniques are based on the voice waveform in the time and frequency domains, while the non-linear analysis techniques are based on the attractor reconstructed from the speech signal.The aim of this thesis is to differentiate normal and pathological voices using a nonlinear analysis technique named Poincaré section. We analyzed 48 human voice signals divided into 3 groups (16 normal, 16 nodule and 16 Reinke\'s edema). Then, we analyzed 3 stretches of 500ms in the intervals 0.5s-1.0s, 2.0s-2.5s e 4.0-4.5s, denominated first criteria, and a stretch of 500ms in a higher variation in pitch, denominated second criteria. The attractor was then reconstructed in three dimensions, the average attractor was determined, and at each point of the average attractor, a Poincaré section was extracted. From each Poincaré section, the dispersion of the points of the attractor was calculated in the plane by means of the statistical average and standard deviation related to the medium point of the section. The validation of the tool developed for this thesis was achieved by inserting jitter gradually in a sinusoidal wave, where there was a proportional variation of average\'s dispersion was observed. The results obtained for this set of voices showed that the average and standard deviation of dispersion of the points in the Poincaré section differentiate the groups of voices, but not the pathological groups. The Statistical tests of Anova and Tukey were used to analyze the 3 groups and all group pairings, two by two, with a statistical significance of 5%. The best interval to classify normal voices from pathological voices by means of the first criteria was between 0.5s-1.0s, given the fact that in this interval, all normal voices were correctly classified. However, 6 pathological voices were classified as normal voices, with 2 voices border lining the frontier between normal voices from pathological voices. The second criteria classified all normal voices correctly, with only one pathological voice incorrectly classified. In conclusion, the second criteria tool proposed by this thesis was proven superior to differentiate normal voices from pathological ones.

Chaotic transport and trapping close to regular structures in 4D symplectic maps

Lange, Steffen 08 August 2016 (has links)
Higher-dimensional Hamiltonian systems usually exhibit a mixed phase space in which regular and chaotic motion coexist. While regular trajectories are confined to regular tori, chaotic trajectories can be transported through a web of so called resonance channels which disrupt the regular structures. The focus of this thesis are time-discrete 4D symplectic maps which represent the lowest dimensional system for which the chaotic transport can circumvent regular tori. While the dynamics of 2D maps are well established, many fundamental questions are open for maps of dimension four and higher due to this property. In particular, the mechanism of the power-law trapping is unknown for these maps. In this thesis, the organization and hierarchy of the regular structures of 4D maps is uncovered and the slow chaotic transport close to these structures is examined. Specifically, this transport is shown to be organized by a set of overlapping resonance channels. The transport across these channels is found to be governed by partial transport barriers. For the transport along a channel a stochastic process including a drift is conjectured. Based on each of these two types of chaotic transport a possible mechanism for the power-law trapping in higher-dimensional systems is proposed.

Dynamical Tunneling in Systems with a Mixed Phase Space

Löck, Steffen 22 April 2010 (has links)
Tunneling is one of the most prominent features of quantum mechanics. While the tunneling process in one-dimensional integrable systems is well understood, its quantitative prediction for systems with mixed phase space is a long-standing open challenge. In such systems regions of regular and chaotic dynamics coexist in phase space, which are classically separated but quantum mechanically coupled by the process of dynamical tunneling. We derive a prediction of dynamical tunneling rates which describe the decay of states localized inside the regular region towards the so-called chaotic sea. This approach uses a fictitious integrable system which mimics the dynamics inside the regular domain and extends it into the chaotic region. Excellent agreement with numerical data is found for kicked systems, billiards, and optical microcavities, if nonlinear resonances are negligible. Semiclassically, however, such nonlinear resonance chains dominate the tunneling process. Hence, we combine our approach with an improved resonance-assisted tunneling theory and derive a unified prediction which is valid from the quantum to the semiclassical regime. We obtain results which show a drastically improved accuracy of several orders of magnitude compared to previous studies. / Der Tunnelprozess ist einer der bedeutensten Effekte in der Quantenmechanik. Während das Tunneln in eindimensionalen integrablen Systemen gut verstanden ist, gestaltet sich dessen Beschreibung für Systeme mit gemischtem Phasenraum weitaus schwieriger. Solche Systeme besitzen Gebiete regulärer und chaotischer Bewegung, die klassisch getrennt sind, aber quantenmechanisch durch den Prozess des dynamischen Tunnelns gekoppelt werden. In dieser Arbeit wird eine theoretische Vorhersage für dynamische Tunnelraten abgeleitet, die den Zerfall von Zuständen, die im regulären Gebiet lokalisiert sind, in die sogenannte chaotische See beschreibt. Dazu wird ein fiktives integrables System konstruiert, das im regulären Bereich eine nahezu gleiche Dynamik aufweist und diese Dynamik in das chaotische Gebiet fortsetzt. Die Theorie zeigt eine ausgezeichnete Übereinstimmung mit numerischen Daten für gekickte Systeme, Billards und optische Mikrokavitäten, falls nichtlineare Resonanzketten vernachlässigbar sind. Semiklassisch jedoch bestimmen diese nichtlinearen Resonanzketten den Tunnelprozess. Daher kombinieren wir unseren Zugang mit einer verbesserten Theorie des Resonanz-unterstützten Tunnelns und erhalten eine Vorhersage,die vom Quanten- bis in den semiklassischen Bereich gültig ist. Ihre Resultate zeigen eine Genauigkeit, die verglichen mit früheren Theorien um mehrere Größenordnungen verbessert wurde.

Flooding of Regular Phase Space Islands by Chaotic States

Bittrich, Lars 26 October 2010 (has links)
We investigate systems with a mixed phase space, where regular and chaotic dynamics coexist. Classically, regions with regular motion, the regular islands, are dynamically not connected to regions with chaotic motion, the chaotic sea. Typically, this is also reflected in the quantum properties, where eigenstates either concentrate on the regular or the chaotic regions. However, it was shown that quantum mechanically, due to the tunneling process, a coupling is induced and flooding of regular islands may occur. This happens when the Heisenberg time, the time needed to resolve the discrete spectrum, is larger than the tunneling time from the regular region to the chaotic sea. In this case the regular eigenstates disappear. We study this effect by the time evolution of wave packets initially started in the chaotic sea and find increasing probability in the regular island. Using random matrix models a quantitative prediction is derived. We find excellent agreement with numerical data obtained for quantum maps and billiards systems. For open systems we investigate the phenomenon of flooding and disappearance of regular states, where the escape time occurs as an additional time scale. We discuss the reappearance of regular states in the case of strongly opened systems. This is demonstrated numerically for quantum maps and experimentally for a mushroom shaped microwave resonator. The reappearance of regular states is explained qualitatively by a matrix model. / Untersucht werden Systeme mit gemischtem Phasenraum, in denen sowohl reguläre als auch chaotische Dynamik auftritt. In der klassischen Mechanik sind Gebiete regulärer Bewegung, die sogenannten regulären Inseln, dynamisch nicht mit den Gebieten chaotischer Bewegung, der chaotischen See, verbunden. Dieses Verhalten spiegelt sich typischerweise auch in den quantenmechanischen Eigenschaften wider, so dass Eigenfunktionen entweder auf chaotischen oder regulären Gebieten konzentriert sind. Es wurde jedoch gezeigt, dass aufgrund des Tunneleffektes eine Kopplung auftritt und reguläre Inseln geflutet werden können. Dies geschieht wenn die Heisenbergzeit, das heißt die Zeit die das System benötigt, um das diskrete Spektrum aufzulösen, größer als die Tunnelzeit vom Regulären ins Chaotische ist, wobei reguläre Eigenzustände verschwinden. Dieser Effekt wird über eine Zeitentwicklung von Wellenpaketen, die in der chaotischen See gestartet werden, untersucht. Es kommt zu einer ansteigenden Wahrscheinlichkeit in der regulären Insel. Mithilfe von Zufallsmatrixmodellen wird eine quantitative Vorhersage abgeleitet, welche die numerischen Daten von Quantenabbildungen und Billardsystemen hervorragend beschreibt. Der Effekt des Flutens und das Verschwinden regulärer Zustände wird ebenfalls mit offenen Systemen untersucht. Hier tritt die Fluchtzeit als zusätzliche Zeitskala auf. Das Wiederkehren regulärer Zustände im Falle stark geöffneter Systeme wird qualitativ mithilfe eines Matrixmodells erklärt und numerisch für Quantenabbildungen sowie experimentell für einen pilzförmigen Mikrowellenresonator belegt.

Quantum signatures of partial barriers in phase space

Michler, Matthias 30 September 2011 (has links)
Generic Hamiltonian systems have a mixed phase space, in which regular and chaotic motion coexist. In the chaotic sea the classical transport is limited by partial barriers, which allow for a flux \Phi given by the corresponding turnstile area. Quantum mechanically the transport is suppressed if Planck's constant is large compared to the classical flux, h >> \Phi, while for h << \Phi classical transport is recovered. For the transition between these limiting cases there are many open questions, in particular concerning the correct scaling parameter and the width of the transition. To investigate this transition in a controlled way, we design a kicked system with a particularly simple phase-space structure, consisting of two chaotic regions separated by one dominant partial barrier. We find a universal scaling with the single parameter \Phi/h and a transition width of almost two orders of magnitude in \Phi/h. In order to describe this transition, we consider several matrix models. While the numerical data is not well described by the random matrix model proposed by Bohigas, Tomsovic, and Ullmo, a deterministic 2x2-model, a channel coupling model, and a unitary model are presented, which describe the transitional behavior of the designed kicked system. This is also confirmed for the generic standard map, suggesting a universal scaling behavior for the quantum transition of a partial barrier. / Generische Hamilton'sche Systeme besitzen einen gemischten Phasenraum, in dem sowohl reguläre als auch chaotische Dynamik vorkommen. Der klassische Transport in der chaotischen See wird durch partielle Barrieren begrenzt, die nur einen Fluss \Phi hindurch lassen. Der quantenmechanische Transport ist stark unterdrückt, wenn die Planck'sche Konstante groß gegen den klassischen Fluss ist, h >> \Phi. Ist hingegen h << \Phi folgt die Quantenmechanik der klassischen Dynamik. Für den Übergangsbereich zwischen diesen Grenzfällen gibt es noch viele offene Fragen, insbesondere bezüglich des richtigen Skalierungsparameters und der Breite des Übergangs. Um gezielt diesen Übergang zu untersuchen, haben wir ein System mit einem besonders einfachen Phasenraum entworfen. Er besteht aus zwei chaotischen Gebieten, die durch eine dominante partielle Barriere getrennt sind. Es zeigt sich, dass das universelle Verhalten durch den Parameter \Phi/h beschrieben wird und der Übergang sich über zwei Größenordnungen erstreckt. Wir betrachten verschiedene Matrixmodelle um diesen Übergang zu verstehen. Die numerischen Daten werden nicht durch das Zufallsmatrixmodell von Bohigas, Tomsovic und Ullmo beschrieben. Ein deterministisches 2x2-Modell, eine Kanalkopplung und ein unitäres Matrixmodell beschreiben hingegen den Übergang des entworfenen gekickten Systems. Die Tatsache, dass auch die generische Standardabbildung diesem Verhalten folgt, spricht für ein universelles Verhalten des Quantenübergangs einer partiellen Barriere.
