Abstract
A general strategy is presented for the asymptotic study of the intera ction of two standing waves in reaction-diffusion systems on IR, when the distance between waves is large. Evolution is exponentially slow i n terms of the distance between the waves. A variety of behaviors is f ound: attraction, repulsion, convergence to a quantized rest state, an d the effect of some symmetries is analyzed.
