We study the model of two interacting particles moving in a 1D box, paying main attention to the quantum‐classical correspondence for the average shape of quantum eigenstates and for the local density of states (LDOS). We show that if the classical motion is chaotic, in a deep semi‐classical region of a quantum system, both the shape of eigenstates and of the LDOS coincide with their classical analogs, on average. However, individual eigenstates exhibit quite large fluctuations which may not be treated as statistical ones. Thus, comparison of quantum quantities to the classical ones allows one to detect quantum effects of localization which for conservative systems emerge in the energy space.
