Abstract
Traditionally, chaos has been associated with a system’s trajectory in phase space or with the evolution of the system’s parameters through time. Previous investigations into chaotic scattering from electromagnetic radiation were undertaken by Jensen1 who studied the trajectory of light rays inside a stadium-shaped cylinder, and by Doron et al.2 who investigated microwave scattering from an elbow-shaped horn. In this presentation, we submit for what we believe to be the first time, a novel system whereby chaos can arise from the partial summation of an otherwise convergent infinite series.
