Relation between Stochastic Resonance and Synchronization of Passages in a Double-Well System

arXiv:cond-mat/9704241 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.55.6266

Abstract

We calculate, numerically, the residence times (and their distribution) of a Brownian particle in a two-well system under the action of a periodic, saw-tooth type, external field. We define hysteresis in the system. The hysteresis loop area is shown to be a good measure of synchronization of passages from one well to the other. We establish connection between this stochastic synchronization and stochastic resonance in the system.
