Abstract
The Siegert integral-equation approach is used to study the statistics of first passage time in a noisy linear dynamical system with a swept control parameter. Small-noise-theory results are recovered from the source terms in the integral equations. Numerical results obtained using a simple algorithm are found to agree well with simulation results. An interesting case in which the first-passage-time probability density has the two most probable values is pointed out.
