Nontrivial stochastic resonance temperature for the kinetic Ising model

Statistical Mechanics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The kinetic Ising model in a weak oscillating magnetic field is studied in the context of stochastic resonance. The signal-to-noise ratio calculated with simulations is found to peak at a nontrivial resonance temperature above the equilibrium critical temperature T_c. We argue that its appearance is closely related to the vanishing of the kinetic coefficient at T_c. Comparisons with various theoretical results in one and higher dimensions are made.
