an enhanced concentration of a quantum eigenstate's probability along an unstable periodic orbit of the chaotic classical system.

In statistical physics, quantum scar refers to an enhanced concentration of a quantum eigenstate's probability along an unstable periodic orbit of the chaotic classical system. This meaning comes from Heller (1984) in Physical Review Letters.[1]
