We introduce a speed selection mechanism for front propagation in reaction-diffusion systems with multiple fields. This mechanism applies to pulled and pushed fronts alike, and operates by restricting the fields to large "finite" intervals…

The empirical velocity of a reaction-diffusion front, propagating into an unstable state, fluctuates because of the shot noises of the reactions and diffusion. Under certain conditions these fluctuations can be described as a diffusion…
