Field-control, phase-transitions, and life's emergence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Instances of critical-like characteristics in living systems at each organizational level as well as the spontaneous emergence of computation (Langton), indicate the relevance of self-organized criticality (SOC).

Molecular basis of Arginine and Lysine DNA sequence-dependent thermo-stability modulation.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2022
We have used a variety of theoretical and experimental techniques to study the role of four basic amino acids-Arginine, Lysine, Ornithine and L-2,4-Diaminobutyric acid-on the structure, flexibility and sequence-dependent stability of DNA.

Protection of liposomes by ferric salts against the UV damage and its implications for the origin of life

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Previously, we presented a hypothesis on the Darwinian evolution of liposomes that relies only on natural and ever-present phenomena: solar UV radiation, day/night cycle, gravity, and the formation/release of amphiphiles in aqueous media.

Natural Radioactivity and Chemical Evolution on the Early Earth: Prebiotic Chemistry and Oxygenation

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
It is generally recognized that the evolution of the early Earth was affected by an external energy source: radiation from the early Sun. The hypothesis about the important role of natural radioactivity, as a source of internal energy in the evolution of

Rethinking “Prebiotic Chemistry”

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract In origins‐of‐life research, the term “prebiotic chemistry” is commonly used to describe processes thought to be related to or required for the emergence of life. However, it suffers from several potential drawbacks that have caused the present group of authors to rethink their usage of the term.

The Nature of Stability in Replicating Systems

open access: yesEntropy, 2011
We review the concept of dynamic kinetic stability, a type of stability associated specifically with replicating entities, and show how it differs from the well-known and established (static) kinetic and thermodynamic stabilities associated with regular ...

From Cosmos to Intelligent Life: The Four Ages of Astrobiology

open access: yes, 2012
The history of life on Earth and in other potential life-bearing planetary platforms is deeply linked to the history of the universe. Since life as we know it relies on chemical elements forged in dying heavy stars, the universe needs to be old enough ...
