Show affiliationsOver the past few decades, spontaneous pattern formation in reaction–diffusion systems has been actively studied both theoretically and experimentally. In this article, we report novel phenomena that are generated beyond the framework of usual reaction–diffusion systems: (1) chemical wave propagation under the effect of a boundary, (2) convection in a reaction–diffusion system, and (3) dynamical phase separation under nonequilibrium conditions caused by a focused laser. All of these phenomena are generated as a result of cross-hierarchical interaction between macroscopic and mesoscopic scales.
