Formation of Liesegang patterns: Simulations using a kinetic Ising model

T. Antal, M. Droz, J. Magnin +2

A kinetic Ising model description of Liesegang phenomena is studied using Monte Carlo simulations. The model takes into account thermal fluctuations, contains noise in the chemical…

Properties of the asymptotic nA+mB->C reaction-diffusion fronts

Jerome Magnin

We discuss, at the mean-field level, the asymptotic shape of the reaction fronts in the general nA+mB->C reaction-diffusion processes with initially separated reactants, thus gener…

Formation of Liesegang patterns: A spinodal decomposition scenario

T. Antal, M. Droz, J. Magnin +1

Spinodal decomposition in the presence of a moving particle source is proposed as a mechanism for the formation of Liesegang bands. This mechanism yields a sequence of band positio…

Liesegang patterns : Studies on the width law

M. Droz, J. Magnin, M. Zrinyi

The so-called "width law" for Liesegang patterns, which states that the positions x_n and widths w_n of bands verify the relation x_n \sim w_n^α for some α>0, is investigated both…

Liesegang patterns: Effect of dissociation of the invading electrolyte

B. Chopard, M. Droz, J. Magnin +2

The effect of dissociation of the invading electrolyte on the formation of Liesegang bands is investigated. We find, using organic compounds with known dissociation constants, that…

Derivation of the Matalon-Packter law for Liesegang patterns

T. Antal, M. Droz, J. Magnin +2

Theoretical models of the Liesegang phenomena are studied and simple expressions for the spacing coefficients characterizing the patterns are derived. The emphasis is on displaying…
