Kinetic spectrometry
The linear behavior of a chemical
system close to a stationary state can be investigated in a very
efficient way by experimental perturbations with different chemical
substances. For oscillatory systems close to a Hopf bifurcation a
range of different chemical systems have been studied by a method we
have called quenching analysis and we have obtained detailled
information on the chemical mechanism. By use of control theory the
quenching method has been generalized to a method for efficient
experimental determination of all the elements of the Jacobian matrix
at the bifurcation point.

Oscillations in living yeast cells.
Glycolytic oscillations in stirred suspensions of living
yeast cells have been known for a long time. The root of
this macroscopically observable phenomenon is that
glycolytic oscillations in the individual cell are
syncronized by some unknown mechanism of intercellular
communication.

Modelling a population of oscillatory yeast cells
The system has been modelled as a set of Stuart-Landau oscillators
communicating with each other through the medium. The Stuart-landau
parameters of the cells are estimated from the experimental
measurements. Depending on the actual values of the parameters the
system shows a remarkable variety in the syncronization dynamics from
attration to a stable stationary state through syncroneous
oscillations of the system to partial syncronization which can be
observed experimentally as periodic or chaotic oscillations of the
order parameter.
