Abstract
We discuss a new mechanism generating long range temporal correlations in dynamical systems coupled to a source of white noise. The external noise induces dynamical events uncorrelated on a logarithmic time scale and produces a fluctuating output with ‘‘1/f’’ power spectrum. This behavior requires a complex phase space with many traps, which can arise due to strong cooperative effects. As a demonstration, we numerically analyze a system of many coupled degrees of freedom, which is externally driven and subject to a white noise perturbation. We find both Poisson statistics for events in log(time) and the 1/f power spectrum.
