title: Stochastic resonance in one-dimensional diffusion with one reflecting and one absorbing end point
abstract: An analysis of the nonmonotonic dependence of the mean-free-passage time on the frequency of a periodic signal [stochastic resonance (SR)] for diffusion on a segment with one absorbing and one reflecting end point shows that SR exists only for some restricted values of parameters. SR always exists if the periodic telegraph signal is replaced by a random one. The latter case is considered in detail.
