Abstract
In experiments on a stirred flow chemical reactor we have observed a sequence of periodic and chaotic regimes that alternate as a function of the flow rate. The periodic regimes are characterized by power spectra consisting of a single fundamental frequency component and harmonics and by limit cycle attractors, while the chaotic regimes are characterized by broadband power spectra and strange attractors. One of the chaotic regimes has been studied in detail and has been found to correspond to a smooth one-dimensional map that has a single maximum and a positive Lyapunov exponent.
