Numerical evaluation of the escape time of a classical point particle from an annular billiard

A two-dimensional annular billiard consisting of a region confined within two concentric circumferences, the outer of radius R and the inner of radius r, is considered. The escape time of a point particle projected at a given angle within this billiard is numerically evaluated in terms of the size o...
