Abstract
Stochastic resonance (SR) and coherence resonance (CR) have been studied experimentally in discharge plasmas close to a homoclinic bifurcation. For the SR phenomenon, it is observed that a superimposed subthreshold periodic signal can be recovered via stochastic modulations of the discharge voltage. Furthermore, it is realized that even in the absence of a subthreshold deterministic signal, the system dynamics can be recovered and optimized using noise. This effect is defined as CR in the literature. In the present experiments, induction of SR and CR is quantified using the absolute mean difference and normalized variance techniques, respectively.Keywords
