Reaction dynamics without<br \/>\na flow present (reaction-diffusion systems) are well understood, as<br \/>\nare the dynamics of laminar, nonreactive fluid flows (chaotic mixing;<br \/>\nadvection-diffusion systems). Extensions of the established theory for<br \/>\nreaction-diffusion systems (the so-called<br \/>\nFisher\u2013Kolmogorov\u2013Petrowskii\u2013Piscounov Theory), which attempt to<br \/>\naccount for the addition of a flow, show major disagreements with<br \/>\nrecent experimental observations. Roads the quest for a new theory may<br \/>\ntake will be discussed, with an emphasis on the role of coherent<br \/>\nstructures in flows (such as vortices) and tools adapted from chaotic<br \/>\nmixing (manifolds and lobes). The discussion will highlight both<br \/>\ncomputational and experimental research conducted in the Physics<br \/>\nDepartment at Bucknell University under Tom Solomon during the summer<br \/>\nof 2010, the computational component of which is ongoing here at<br \/>\nTruman.
