Abstract
The spectrum of a chaotic two-dimensional quantum billiard with threefold symmetry has been studied in an experiment with a superconducting microwave cavity. In total 622 eigenvalues were identified experimentally and compared with numerical calculations. The statistical analysis of the data shows that Gaussian unitary ensemble statistics can be observed for a spectrum of a time-reversal invariant system.
