A '''catalyst''' is an object that participates in a reaction but emerges from it unharmed. The term is mostly applied to [[still life]]s, but can also be used for [[oscillator]]s, [[spaceship]]s, and other [[pattern]]s. The still lifes and oscillators which form a [[conduit]] are examples of catalysts.
