| contents | Eigenlevel correlation diagrams has proven to be a very useful tool to understand eigenstate characteristics of classically chaotic systems. In particular, we showed in a previous publication [Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 944 (1998)] how to unveil the scarring mechanism, a cornerstone in the theory of quantum chaos, using the Planck constant as the correlation parameter. By increasing Planck constant, we induced a transition from order to chaos, in which scarred wavefunctions appeared as the interaction of pairs of eigenstates in broad avoided crossings, forming a well defined frontier in the correlation diagram. In this paper, we demonstrate that this frontier can be obtained by means of the semiclassical quantization of the involved scarring periodic orbits. Additionally, in order to calculate the Maslov index of each scarring periodic orbit, which is necessary for the semiclassical quantization procedure, we introduce a novel straightforward method based on Lagrangian descriptors. We illustrate the theory using the vibrational eigenstates of the LiCN molecular system. |
