Definition

\[ \begin{aligned} \dot{x} &= - a x + a y + w \\ \dot{y} &= c x - x z - y \\ \dot{z} &= - b z + x y \\ \dot{w} &= d w - x z \end{aligned} \]

Parameters

Symbol Default Role
a 10 Lorenz-core coefficient
b 2.667 Lorenz-core coefficient
c 28 Lorenz-core coefficient
d 1.1 fourth-variable feedback coefficient

State variables: x, y, z, w
