TLDR
For planar Lorentz processes with a finite horizon, Schmidt and Conze as discussed by the authors proved a local central limit theorem (CLT) and recurrence for the case d = 2, finite horizon.
Abstract
For Young systems, i.e. for hyperbolic systems without/with singularities satisfying Young's axioms (Lai-Sang Young, Ann. Math.147 (1998), 585–650), which imply exponential decay of correlations and the central limit theorem (CLT), a local CLT is proven. In fact, a unified version of the local CLT is found, covering, among others, the absolutely continuous and arithmetic cases. For planar Lorentz process with a finite horizon, this result implies (a) a local CLT and (b) recurrence. For the latter case (d = 2, finite horizon), combining the global CLT with abstract ergodic theoretic ideas, K. Schmidt (C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Ser. 1 Math. 372(9) (1998), 837–842) and J.-P. Conze (Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.19(5) (1999), 1233–1245) could already establish recurrence.

Limit Theorems in the Stadium Billiard

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Birkhoff sums for almost every relevant observable in the stadium billiard obey a non-standard limit law, i.e., the usual central limit theorem holds for an observable if and only if its integral along a one-codimensional invariant set vanishes, otherwise a Open image in new window normalization is needed.
