ABSTRACT

The possibility of an autoparametric resonance in an isolated many-particle system induces a specific behavior of the particles in the presence of thermal noise. In particular, the variance associated with a resonant mode, and consequently that of the associated particles, is strongly increased compared to what it would have in the absence of parametric resonance. In this paper we consider a dimer submitted to a periodic potential for which there are only two modes, the center of mass motion and the internal vibration mode. This is the simplest system which is dynamically rich enough to exhibit an autoparametric excitation of the internal vibrations by the center of mass motion. The consequences of this autoparametric excitation on the particles diffusion will be discussed according to the stiffness of the interaction and to the initial energy of the dimer, the relevant parameters which characterize this dynamics.
