Abstract. In this article we present an explanation for co-discovery in science. Our core proposal is that co-discovery i.e. the synchronization of different people offering the same (or very similar) ideas, takes place when a common external action is provided by an external and common information flux. In our mathematical model this external action takes the form of a chaotic or a noisy signal. From our model we obtain an estimation for the number of co-discoveries expected for the 21
century which will be in the order of thousands.
