  A comparison of escape rates from one and from two holes in an experimental
container (e.g. a laser trap) can be used to obtain information about the
dynamics inside the container. If this dynamics is simple enough one can hope
to obtain exact formulas. Here we obtain exact formulas for escape from a
circular billiard with one and with two holes. The corresponding quantities are
expressed as sums over zeroes of the Riemann zeta function. Thus we demonstrate
a direct connection between recent experiments and a major unsolved problem in
mathematics, the Riemann hypothesis.
