Abstract

We show that in a chaotic scattering system the stable and unstable foliations of isolated chaotic invariant sets can become heteroclinically tangent to each other at an uncountably infinite number of parameter values. The first tangency, which is a crisis in chaotic scattering, provides the link between the chaotic sets. A striking consequence is that the fractal dimension of the set of singularities in the scattering function increases in the parameter range determined by the first and the last tangencies. This leads to a proliferation of singularities in the scattering function and, consequently, to an enhancement of chaotic scattering.
