Abstract
Investigations on the possibility of quantum chaotic behaviour have now grown into an autonomous field of research, usually referred to as ‘Quantum Chaos’ /1,2/. Arguments under current investigation range from issues of a mostly foundational flavour to others directly related to the phenomenology of microsystems. Indeed, some very actual problems in Quantum Chaos are of direct interest to molecular and atomic physics, to solid state physics and to quantum optics. Such problems are currently being investigated in close connection with experimental research and are of major applicative interest.
