Abstract
We investigate the effect of noise on phase synchronization of coupled chaotic oscillators. It is found that additive white noise can induce phase slips in integer multiples of 2π’s in parameter regimes where phase synchronization is observed in the absence of noise. The average time duration of the temporal phase synchronization scales with the noise amplitude in a way that can be described as superpersistent transient. We give two independent heuristic derivations that yield the same numerically observed scaling law.
