چکیده

Many chaotic oscillators have rather coherent phase dynamics but strong fluctuation in the amplitudes. Conversely, homoclinic chaos is characterized by quite regular spikes but strong fluctuation in their time intervals. We study the effects of noise on the synchronization of homoclinic chaos to a weak periodic signal and demonstrate numerically and experimentally in a CO2 laser system that noise enhances synchronization of homoclinic chaos. The system exhibits both conventional resonance versus driving frequency and stochastic resonance with respect to noise intensity.

Constructive effects of noise in homoclinic chaotic systems.

Many chaotic oscillators have coherent phase dynamics but strong fluctuations in the amplitudes. At variance with such a behavior, homoclinic chaos is characterized by quite regular spikes but strong fluctuation in their time intervals due to the chaotic recurrence to a saddle point. We study influences of noise on homoclinic chaos. We demonstrate both numerically and experimentally on a CO2 la...

Homoclinic chaos in a laser: synchronization and its implications in biological systems

Phase synchronization of a CO2 laser with feedback, exhibiting homoclinic chaos, is realized by a tiny periodic perturbation of a control parameter. The deviations of the modulation frequency from the optimal one induce phase slips, thus yielding an imperfect phase synchronization. Based on the information of these phase slips, the modulation frequency can be readjusted until the phase slips ar...

A programmable electronic circuit for modelling CO2 laser dynamics.

We introduce a programmable electronic circuit implementing the rich dynamics of CO2 laser models. The design and the implementation of the circuit are accomplished by using a programmable analog device, which permits an experimental characterization of the laser dynamics. The experimental results shown in the paper demonstrate that the circuit exhibits homoclinic chaos typical of CO2 laser wit...

Stochastic and coherence resonance in lasers: homoclinic chaos and polarization bistability

We report Stochastic Resonance and Coherence Resonance phenomena in experiments using CO2 lasers. First, we consider a polarized laser with feedback; for suitable feedback parameters, the laser intensity undergoes homoclinic chaos consisting in the return to a saddle focus, where noise controls the permanence time around the saddle. Second, we discuss a quasi-isotropic laser where noise induces...

Synchronization of homoclinic chaos.

Homoclinic chaos is characterized by regular geometric orbits occurring at erratic times. Phase synchronization at the average repetition frequency is achieved by a tiny periodic modulation of a control parameter. An experiment has been carried on a CO(2) laser with feedback, set in a parameter range where homoclinic chaos occurs. Any offset of the modulation frequency from the average induces ...
