Steady Out‐of‐Equilibrium Chemistry: What? Why? How?

On the path toward living matter, this account evokes rewards, steps, methodologies, and difficulties to practice out-of-equilibrium steady Chemistry.

Abstract

There is an active interest in living matter from a systemic perspective. Whereas the targeted goal of producing living matter remains elusive, it may currently be useful to recognize some steps along the way and underline their intrinsic value, independently of the final goal. Hence, conceived to support further research in the field, this account evokes several preliminary developments which have only been partially performed, methodologies that could be engaged, and difficulties that are worth considering for optimal design of the future experimental plans.
