Abstract: We consider $N$ oscillators coupled by a mean field as in the Winfree model. The model is governed by two parameters: the coupling strength $kappa$ and the spectrum width $gamma$ of the frequencies of each oscillator. In the uncoupled regime, $kappa=0$, each oscillator possesses its own natural frequency, and the difference between the phases of any two oscillators grows linearly in time. We say that $N$ oscillators are synchronized if the difference between any two phases is uniformly bounded in time. We identify a new hypothesis for the existence of synchronization. The domain in $(gamma,kappa)$ of synchronization contains coupling values that are both weak and strong. Moreover the domain is independent of the number of oscillators and the distribution of the frequencies. We give a numerical counter-example which shows that this hypothesis is necessary for the existence of synchronization.
