摘要

A one-dimensional linear autonomous system coupled to a generic stationary nonequilibrium fluctuating bath can exhibit resonant response when its damped oscillation period matches some characteristic bath's relaxation time. This condition justifies invoking the stochastic resonance paradigm, even if it can be achieved more easily by tuning the system to the bath and not vice versa, as is usually the case. The simple nature of the mechanism numerically investigated here suggests a number of interesting applications for instance in the context of (1) energy harvesting from random ambient vibrations, (2) activated barrier crossing through a saddle point, or (3) an unstable limit cycle.
