We consider the reaction-diffusion system $u_t=\delta u_{xx}-2uv/(\beta+u)$, $v_t=v_{xx}+uv/(\beta+u)$, which is used to model the acidic nitrate-ferroin reaction. Here $\beta$ is a positive constant, $u$ and $v$ represent the concentrations of the ferroin and acidic nitrate respectively, and $\delta$ denotes the ratio of the diffusion rates. The existence of travelling waves for this system is known. Using energy functionals, we provide a stability analysis of travelling waves.

Keywords: acidic nitrate-ferroin reaction., travelling wave, Stability, reaction-diffusion system.
