Abstract

External forcing can greatly affect the evolution of Turing patterns in reaction-diffusion (RD) media. Here, we employ spatially periodic illumination in a photosensitive RD system to create Turing structures that are repetitive in one direction. We then study their relaxation in the absence of light. These unforced, fishbonelike configurations undergo self-reorganization and establish stationary arrangements, some of which fully exhibit, while others partially or completely lose, the symmetry of the initially imposed pattern.
