Abstract

AbstractInvestigations in a periodically driven neon glow discharge show that the occurrence of bestabilities can lead to chaotic states. These states are caused by wave phenomena. Characterizing this behaviour by means of the autocorrelation and the crosscorrelation function without the knowledge of the power spectra can imply false interpretations. These are due to the different dissipation of the fluctuations synchronous with the phase‐shifted excitation. It is demonstrated that much information obtained from a large set of data is needed for a reliable evaluation of the dynamics of chaotic states.
