The global response to weak time periodic forces of an array of noisy, coupled nonlinear systems might show a nonmonotonic dependence on the number of units in the array. This effect has been termed system size stochastic resonance. In this…

Stochastic resonance is a counter-intuitive concept[1,2], ; the addition of noise to a noisy system induces coherent amplification of its response. First suggested as a mechanism for the cyclic recurrence of ice ages, stochastic resonance…
