Abstract

The localization length of classical waves in two-dimensional random media is calculated exactly, and is compared with the theoretical prediction from the current analytic theory. Significant discrepancies are observed. It is also shown that as the frequency varies, critical changes in the localization behavior can occur. However, by a rescaling of parameters the two results tend to match each other for weak scattering. Possible reasons for the discrepancies are discussed.
