The algorithmic origins of life [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of The Royal Society Interface, 2013
Although it has been notoriously difficult to pin down precisely what is it that makes life so distinctive and remarkable, there is general agreement that its informational aspect is one key property, perhaps the key property. The unique informational narrative of living systems suggests that life may be characterized by context-dependent causal ...

A carbonate-rich lake solution to the phosphate problem of the origin of life

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Phosphate is crucial for the origin of life because it is ubiquitous in key biomolecules. A major issue is that prebiotic syntheses use concentrated phosphate to incorporate phosphate into biomolecules, whereas natural waters are generally ...

Multiverse Predictions for Habitability: Origin of Life Scenarios

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
If the origin of life is rare and sensitive to the local conditions at the site of its emergence, then, using the principle of mediocrity within a multiverse framework, we may expect to find ourselves in a universe that is better than usual at creating ...

Constraining the Time Interval for the Origin of Life on Earth. [PDF]

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2018
Estimates of the time at which life arose on Earth make use of two types of evidence. First, astrophysical and geophysical studies provide a timescale for the formation of Earth and the Moon, for large impact events on early Earth, and for the cooling of

Hygiene Quality and Consumer Safety of Traditional Short- and Long-Ripened Cheeses from Poland

open access: yesJournal of Food Quality, 2018
The aim of this study was the assessment of the microbiological quality of three types of traditional cheeses which are produced from raw and pasteurized cow’s milk. Two types of cheeses were of the short-ripened type, and one cheese was long-ripened.
