Abstract Homoclinic chaos in the alternating periodic-chaotic sequences is observed in a nonlinear circuit with sinusoidal driving force. In particular, a complete Alternating Periodic-Chaotic sequence is recorded with a high-resolution up to P(8) state. The experimental results, analyzed by constructing the time of flight and the next maximal amplitude return maps, are in good agreement with the scenario described by Shilnikov. The underlying dynamics of homoclinic chaos is determined from the next amplitude return map, to be that of a unimodal map and thus a strong dissipation case.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
