Objectives of the Satellite Session:
Our objective is to highlight the rich history and current directions in the field of nonlinear dynamics in chemical systems. The experimental and theoretical research of this subfield of chemistry falls within the domain of complex systems science in topic and approach. In connecting these communities through a satellite session at CCS we hope to foster an environment of intellectual exchange with the potential outcome of connections and collaborations that might otherwise be unrealized. We also look to encourage the full participation of young researchers from the diverse backgrounds in this community.
Scope of the Satellite Session:
Four different tracks can be identified which are the different combinations of nonlinear dynamics in chemical systems with other physical or physicochemical phenomena such as mechanical motion and diffusion.
These tracks are:
• Nonlinearity in temporal dynamics of chemical systems
• Networks of chemical oscillators
• Spatiotemporal phenomena
• Chemo-mechanics
