Coherent backscattering from a quantum dot is insensitive to the Ehrenfest time
read the original abstract
This paper was withdrawn by the authors. The purpose of this paper was to provide conclusive evidence for the Ehrenfest-time-independence of weak localization, by means of a computer simulation of the coherent backscattering peak on very large systems. (Two orders of magnitude larger than we could reach in cond-mat/0405122 by studying weak localization directly.) We have decided to withdraw this paper, after Piet Brouwer convinced us that the one-to-one correspondence between weak localization and coherent backscattering can not be relied upon. For example, a reflection matrix with one half of its eigenvalues equal to 0 and the other half equal to 1 (hence without weak localization) would still show a coherent backscattering peak in a basis that is randomly related to its eigenbasis.
