The influence of concentration-dependent diffusivities on wave stability
Literature Information
Marc R. Roussel, Jichang Wang
Investigations on the onset of wave instability in excitable reaction–diffusion media have mainly focused on the effects of reaction kinetics and the relative diffusivity of activator and inhibitor. In this study, we characterize wave stability in a medium in which a diffusion coefficient depends on the local concentration of a reagent. Calculations with a simple CO oxidation model illustrate that the sensitivity of the diffusion coefficient to the concentration can behave like a dynamical parameter to induce transitions between “backfiring” and “regular” propagating pulses. The transition is due to the influence of the variable diffusion process on the refractory zone of wave activity.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
