Negative velocity fluctuations of pulled reaction fronts.
The position of a reaction front, propagating into an unstable state, fluctuates because of the shot noise. What is the probability that the fluctuating front moves considerably slower than its deterministic counterpart? Can the noise arrest the front motion for some time, or even make it move in the wrong direction? We present a WKB theory that assumes many particles in the front region and an...
متن کاملSubdiffusive fluctuations of "pulled" fronts with multiplicative noise
We study the propagation of a "pulled" front with multiplicative noise that is created by a local perturbation of an unstable state. Unlike a front propagating into a metastable state, where a separation of time scales for sufficiently large t creates a diffusive wandering of the front position about its mean, we predict that for so-called pulled fronts, the fluctuations are subdiffusive with r...
متن کاملFluctuating pulled fronts & Pomerons
I give a physical discussion of the influence of particle number fluctuations on the high energy evolution in QCD. I emphasize the event–by–event description and the correspondence with the problem of ‘fluctuating pulled fronts’ in statistical physics. I show that the correlations generated by fluctuations reduce the phase–space for BFKL evolution up to saturation. Because of that, the evolutio...
متن کاملVelocity fluctuations of noisy reaction fronts propagating into a metastable state: testing theory in stochastic simulations
The position of a reaction front, propagating into a metastable state, fluctuates because of the shot noise of reactions and diffusion. A recent theory [B. Meerson, P.V. Sasorov, and Y. Kaplan, Phys. Rev. E 84, 011147 (2011)] gave a closed analytic expression for the front diffusion coefficient in the weak noise limit. Here we test this theory in stochastic simulations involving reacting and di...
متن کاملUniversality class of fluctuating pulled fronts.
It has recently been proposed that fluctuating "pulled" fronts propagating into an unstable state should not be in the standard Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class for rough interface growth. We introduce an effective field equation for this class of problems, and show on the basis of it that noisy pulled fronts in d+1 bulk dimensions should be in the universality class of the ((d+1)+1...
