Concentration fluctuations in nonisothermal reaction-diffusion systems

Concentration fluctuations in nonisothermal reaction-diffusion systems.

In this paper a simple reaction-diffusion system, namely a binary fluid mixture with an association-dissociation reaction between the two components, is considered. Fluctuations at hydrodynamic spatiotemporal scales when a temperature gradient is present in this chemically reacting system are studied. First, fluctuating hydrodynamics when the system is in global equilibrium (isothermal) is revi...

Concentration fluctuations in non-isothermal reaction-diffusion systems. II. The nonlinear case.

In this paper, we consider a simple reaction-diffusion system, namely, a binary fluid mixture with an association-dissociation reaction between two species. We study fluctuations at hydrodynamic spatiotemporal scales when this mixture is driven out of equilibrium by the presence of a temperature gradient, while still being far away from any chemical instability. This study extends the analysis ...

Diffusion-Driven Instability in Reaction Diffusion Systems

For a stable matrix A with real entries, sufficient and necessary conditions for A D to be stable for all non-negative diagonal matrices D are obtained. Implications of these conditions for the stability and instability of constant steadystate solutions to reaction diffusion systems are discussed and an example is given to show applications. 2001 Academic Press

Concentration fluctuations in a mesoscopic oscillating chemical reaction system.

Under sustained pumping, kinetics of macroscopic nonlinear biochemical reaction systems far from equilibrium either can be in a stationary steady state or can execute sustained oscillations about a fixed mean. For a system of two dynamic species X and Y, the concentrations n(x) and n(y) will be constant or will repetitively trace a closed loop in the (n(x), n(y)) phase plane, respectively. We s...
