    Notes: Summary We have investigated, experimentally and theoretically, the occurrence of stochastic resonance (SR) in a laser with saturable absorber: a non-linear optical system presenting optical bistability and self-pulsed regimes for the laser output intensity. In the optical-bistability regime we have obtained an excellent demonstration of SR by studying Fourier spectra and residence time distributions; operating just below the Hopf bifurcation that originates pulsed periodic regime we have obtained experimental evidence of the SR phenomenon. For operation close to the Hopf bifurcation, the theoretical analysis (performed through numerical simulations) has demonstrated that simultaneous presence of noise and periodic forcing generates excursions far from equilibrium; from the locking between these excursions and periodic forcing the SR phenomenon may arise.

    Notes: Summary We outline the historical development of stochastic resonance (SR), a phenomenon in which the signal and/or the signal-to-noise ratio in a nonlinear system increase with increasing intensity of noise. We discuss basic theoretical ideas explaining and describing SR, and we review some revealing experimental data that place SR within the wider context of statistical physics. We emphasize the close relationship of SR to some effects that are well known in condensed-matter physics.

    Notes: Summary We look for stochastic resonance in the very low temperature limit, where a quantum-mechanical treatment is needed. The canonical example of a dissipative double-well potential subject to periodic forcing is studied within the two-state approximation. The cases of both ohmic and superohmic dissipation are investigated in detail.

    Notes: Summary The response of an overdamped system to quasi-monochromatic (high-frequency narrow band) noise (QMN) has been investigated by means of analogue electronic experiments. Measurements of the stationary and prehistory probability distributions demonstrate that large occasional, fluctuations are markedly different in character from those that occur when the system is driven by white or exponentially correlated noise. In particular, we report the first experimental observation of a switching point, a critical value of the coordinatex that separates regions which, with an overwhelming probability, are accessed by the fluctuating system along topologically different paths. The results are discussed in terms of, and shown to be consistent with, an existing theoretical description of the QMN-driven system.
