Abstract

We found a new type of spiral wave behavior in a homogeneous two-dimensional autowave medium. In this regime, the spiral wave tip motion transforms from a two-periodic meander into one-periodic circular rotation due to spontaneous deceleration of spiral wave drift. This discovery might be useful for insight into the nature of various phenomena and, in particular, some potentially life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias.
