Abstract: The influence of internal noise on a mesoscopic oscillating chemical reaction system is numerically studied by using chemical Langevin equations. It is found that internal noise can induce reaction oscillations in the system when the corresponding deterministic system does not oscillate. With the change of the internal noise intensity,the signal-to-noise ratio of the noise-induced oscillation goes through a maximum,which shows the occurrence of internal noise stochastic resonance. Since the magnitude of the internal noise is changed via the variation of the system size,these phenomena also demonstrate a kind of system size resonance.
