• Curvature and propagation velocity of chemical waves

  Authors:Petra Foerster, Stefan C. Muller, and Benno HessFrom:Science (Vol. 241, Issue 4866) Peer-Reviewed

  Aug. 5, 19881,256 words Article Curvature and Propagation Velocity of Chemical Waves SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL ORGANIZATION, which is characteristic of biological processes, is also found in simpler chemical and biochemical systems maintained far from...

• Anisotropy and spiral organizing centers in patterned excitable media

  Authors:Oliver Steinbock, Petteri Kettunen, and Kenneth ShowalterFrom:Science (Vol. 269, Issue 5232) Peer-Reviewed

  Sept. 29, 19952,680 words Article Chemical wave behavior in a patterned Belousov-Zhabotinsky system prepared by printing the catalyst of the reaction on membranes with an ink jet printer is described. Cellular inhomogeneities give rise to global...

• The structure of the core of the spiral wave in the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction

  Authors:Stefan C. Muller, Theo Plesser, and Benno HessFrom:Science (Vol. 230) Peer-Reviewed

  Nov. 8, 19851,489 words Article The formation of spatial patterns in chemical systems resulting from the coupling of reaction with transport processes such as diffusion or convection has been extensively studied, both theoretically and experimentally,...

• Anatol Zhabotinsky (1938-2008): pioneer of oscillating chemical reactions

  Author:Irving R. EpsteinFrom:Nature (Vol. 455, Issue 7216) Peer-Reviewed

  Oct. 23, 20081,025 words Obituary 1500LAnatol Zhabotinsky, the father of nonlinear chemical dynamics, passed away on 16 September after a brief illness. In many ways, his scientific career represents a microcosm of the history of Russia in the second half of...

• The motion of untwisted untorted scroll waves in Belousov-Zhabotinsky reagent

  Authors:James P. Keener and John J. TysonFrom:Science (Vol. 239, Issue 4845) Peer-Reviewed

  Mar. 11, 19882,186 words Article The Motio of Untwisted Untorted Scroll Waves in Belousov-Zhabotinsky Reagent ROTATING WAVES OF ACTIVITY ARE observed in chemical systems, such as Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction (1), and in biological systems, such...

  Authors:John Ross, Stefan C. Muller, and Christian VidalFrom:Science (Vol. 240, Issue 4851) Peer-Reviewed

  Apr. 22, 19883,804 words Article Chemical Waves CHEMICAL FRONTS AND WAVES (1) ARE VARIATIONS IN concentrations of chemical species, or possibly in other state variables such as temperature, which travel in space and occur in nonlinear reactive...

• Phototaxis of spiral waves

  Authors:Mario Markus, Zsuzsanna Nagy-Ungvarai, and Benno HessFrom:Science (Vol. 257, Issue 5067) Peer-Reviewed

  July 10, 19922,024 words Article The drift of spiral waves toward regions or higher light intensity was observed experimentally in the ruthenium-catalyzed Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. A light gradient can thus be used to manipulate optical information...

• Spiral waves in chemistry and biology

  Author:Irving R. EpsteinFrom:Science (Vol. 252, Issue 5002) Peer-Reviewed

  Apr. 5, 1991971 words Article CHEMISTS HAVE DEVOTED CONSIDERABLE EFFORT TO designing and building molecular systems that mimic and, possibly, provide insights into many aspects of biological structure and function. For example, molecules that...
