title: Delayed feedback control of noise-induced patterns in excitable media.
abstract: We show that characteristic features of noise-induced spatiotemporal patterns in excitable media can be effectively controlled by applying delayed feedback. Actually, by variation of the time delay and of the strength of the feedback one can deliberately change both spatial and temporal coherence, as well as adjust the characteristic time scales.
