Abstract
We study stochastic resonance (SR) of a dimer, confined in a bistable potential, in the presence of two types of Gaussian colored noise: (i) Ornstein–Uhlenbeck (OU) noise and (ii) power-limited (PL) colored noise. Under the influence of OU noise, the occurrence of SR is delayed, as the correlation time, τ, increases. On the other hand, in the case of PL-colored noise, the SR peak shows a non-monotonic variation with increasing correlation time, τ. Interestingly, a double peak resonance in the input energy as a function of the correlation time, τ, is observed, indicating the presence of multi-resonance. This suggests an enhancement of stochastic resonance driven by this type of colored noise.
