Cover: Aggregation–disaggregation self‐oscillating behavior of a polymer chain with a positively charged moiety is investigated by the simultaneous measurement of transmittance and redox potential. The autonomous aggregation–disaggregation is induced by the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction. It is first observed that the initially decreased amplitude increases again. This phenomenon originates in the autonomous dissociation of the large polymer aggregation due to the reactivity of the Ru(bpy) 3 moiety. Further details can be found in the article by Y. Hara * and R. Yoshida on page 2160 .
