Monostable array-enhanced stochastic resonance.

We present a simple nonlinear system that exhibits multiple distinct stochastic resonances. By adjusting the noise and coupling of an array of underdamped, monostable oscillators, we modify the array's natural frequencies so that the spectral response of a typical oscillator in an array of N oscillators exhibits N-1 different stochastic resonances. Such families of resonances may elucidate and facilitate a variety of noise-mediated cooperative phenomena, such as noise-enhanced propagation, in a broad class of similar nonlinear systems.

Noninvasive control of stochastic resonance.

External feedback can enhance (or depress) the response of a noisy bistable system to monochromatic signals, significantly magnifying its natural stochastic resonance. We compare and contrast a variety of such feedback strategies, using both numerical simulations and analog electronic experiments. These noninvasive control techniques are especially valuable for noisy bistable systems that are difficult or impossible to modify internally.
