We uncovered a class of transient chaos for which the average
lifetime obeys the following scaling law:
, where C0,
C1, and γ are positive constants and ε is a
scaling parameter. This occurs in dynamical systems preceding an
unstable-unstable pair bifurcation, subject to noise of amplitude
ε. The extreme longevity of the transient lifetime
for small ε is striking, which has not been reported
previously. We formulate a theory to explain this type of
extraordinarily superpersistent chaotic transients,
and point out physical relevance and implications.
