Local and Network Dynamics of a Non-Integer Order Resistor-Capacitor Shunted Josephson Junction Oscillators

Spiral waves are an intriguing phenomenon that can be found in a variety of chemical and biological systems. We consider the fractional-order resistor-capacitor shunted Josephson junction chaotic oscillator to investigate the spiral wave pattern. For a preliminary understanding, we look at the dynamics of isolated FJJs and show that infinitely coexisting periodic and chaotic attractors depend on the fractional order. In addition, we perform bifurcation analysis to show the dynamical transition of the attractors as a function of fractional order and basin stability analysis to show the infinitely coexisting attractors. This is followed by the existence of spiral waves which is observed under various intrinsic and extrinsic system parameters. Finally, the impact of noise on SW is also analyzed by dispersing it to the entire stimulation period or defined time-period.

Automated summary

This paper investigates the behavior of spiral waves in a fractional-order resistor-capacitor shunted Josephson junction chaotic oscillator, and observes the dynamics of periodic and chaotic attractors in relation to the fractional order.
