Abstract
We show that the rate of spontaneous formation of centers of target patterns in the Belousov?Zhabotinsky reaction?diffusion system depends strongly on the concentration of the initial reagents. Computer simulations show that the dependence can be explained by the hypothesis that small heterogeneous impurities are the sources of the target patterns.
