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…

The prevalent scheme of a diffusion-mediated bimolecular reaction $A+B\rightarrow P$ is an adaptation of that proposed by Briggs and Haldane for enzyme action [{\em Biochem J.\/}, 19:338--339, 1925]. The purpose of this Note is to explain,…
