Abstract
Rate oscillations are theoretically studied for the CO + O2 reaction proceeding according to a modified Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism on a platinum-group metal catalyst. A new hierarchical system of consistent mathematical models is suggested for the identification of oscillatory regimes in the stochastic model. This system includes the stochastic model based on the Monte Carlo method and a point deterministic model in the medium field approximation. Three fundamentally different types of oscillatory behavior of the stochastic model are revealed and studied. These are kinetic oscillations corresponding to autooscillations of the point model, fluctuation-induced oscillations occurring in an excitable medium in the region of the unique stable stationary solution of the point model, and fluctuation-induced random phase transitions between stable stationary solutions of the point model in the bistability region. The effect of internal fluctuations (which are inherent in stochastic models) on the oscillatory dynamics of the reaction is studied.
