Dispersion of traveling waves in the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction

Abstract We use perturbation and numerical methods to calculate the dispersion relation for periodic wave train solutions of diffusion-reaction equations modeling the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction. These results are compared with experimental data for the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reagent and shown to be in good agreement.
