Deterministic chaos in chemistry

  • Published:
Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The characteristics of chaotic processes in chemical systems and the manner in which these processes differ from other irregularly oscillatory phenomena, in particular, stochastic noise, are studied. The basic definitions and concepts employed for describing chaotic states are given, and quantitative characteristics of deterministic chaos are examined. Most redox reactions occurring in solutions in the chaotic regime are analyzed.
