I worked with phase shift reactions a lot a couple of years ago. I have had some ideas for searching for new phase shift reactions with dr, by basically placing two known oscillator rotors next to each other and seeing if they interact. The project is just complicated enough that I am not particularly motivated to start it at this time, but I thought I would share it here.
The basic idea is to take the rotors of two known oscillators, and find all of the stator cells (both on and off) that must be set in the one-cell boundary around each rotor (calculated via a script). Next put both of these patterns into a dr search, where the rotor/boundary-stator overlaps in any way (accomplished via a script). Finally, set the rotor cells so that they are not counted in the changed-cells total, and only allow for a max of 3 to 4 changed cells. Those 3 to 4 cells would be the stator cells shared by both rotors that interact slightly with each other. Most combinations would probably just terminate due to errors in setting cells, but some would presumably find minor interactions or phase shift reactions.
One concern in this method that may not be obvious at first is that standard dr requires you to set a stable background for each of the rotors, so errors could be caused by choosing "the wrong background" when another choice of background would work. The "don't-check" cells I added might be a remedy to this, but I'm not sure if they wouldn't cause some other unforeseen problem.
I imagine that this method could find phase shift reactions that wouldn't occur naturally or that aren't obviously seen by hand. For example, such a search could probably find this p24 that
Dean Hickerson found:
Code: Select all
x = 16, y = 15, rule = B3/S23

One difficulty in this project might be in choosing which rotors to use. Generally, small rotors and rotors that only change "a little bit" from generation to generation are probably the best for phase shifts. Still, larger rotors would probably be necessary to be the "support" for the phase shift reaction.
Most interesting is the possibility of mutually-phase shifting rotors. This occured naturally in the following p17:
Code: Select all
x = 27, y = 44, rule = B3/S23

A period-5 oscillator is shifted +2 generations by four period-8 oscillators. At the same time, the p5 shifts the p8 oscillators by +1.
I found this "almost p19" by hand:
Code: Select all
x = 16, y = 14, rule = B3/S23

It is only off by one cell in generation 6, and again by that same cell in generation 19.
Also, here is a table of phase shift reactions that I was working on two years ago (
Edit: a tub next to a number means that the reaction cannot be accomplished with sub-periodic components, which is obvious for prime periods, but less than obvious for many composite periods):
Code: Select all
x = 665, y = 324, rule = B3/S23
