Abstract
We study the resonant scattering of plasmons (linear waves) by discrete breather excitations in Josephson junction ladders. We predict the existence of Fano resonances, and find them by computing the resonant vanishing of the transmission coefficient. We propose an experimental setup of detecting these resonances, and conduct numerical simulations which demonstrate the possibility to observe Fano resonances in the plasmon scattering by discrete breathers in Josephson junction ladders.
