We consider diffusion-limited reactions A_i + A_j -> 0 (1 <= i < j <= q) in d space dimensions. For q > 2 and d >= 2 we argue that the asymptotic density decay for such mutual annihilation processes with equal rates and initial densities is…
We study a reaction-diffusion system on the real line, where the reactions of the species are given by one reversible reaction according to the mass-action law. We describe different positive limits at both sides of infinity and investigate…
Bullets are fired, one per second, with independent speeds sampled uniformly from a discrete set. Collisions result in mutual annihilation. We show that the second fastest bullet survives with positive probability, while a slowest bullet…
In coalescing ballistic annihilation, infinitely many particles move with fixed velocities across the real line and, upon colliding, either mutually annihilate or generate a new particle. We compute the critical density in symmetric…
The reaction process $A+B->C$ is modelled for ballistic reactants on an infinite line with particle velocities $v_A=c$ and $v_B=-c$ and initially segregated conditions, i.e. all A particles to the left and all B particles to the right of…
We investigate self-similar scalar field solutions to the Einstein equations in whole cylinder symmetry. Imposing self-similarity on the spacetime gives rise to a set of single variable functions describing the metric. Furthermore, it is…
