Abstract
Experimentally determined eigenvalue velocities in a Sinai billiard we re used to establish a relation between the Pechukas-Yukawa level dyna mics and periodic orbit theory. The first one explains easily the obse rved Maxwellian velocity distributions, whereas the second one account s for velocity correlations between distant levels, and a conspicuous increase of the averaged velocities with energy.
