Can prebiotic chemistry harvest energy from cyclic environments?
We explore how oscillating reservoirs can drive chemical systems to extract power. Revealing resonance regimes for optimal harvest.

New pre-print with Jacqueline Janssen and Frank Jülicher! We extend the Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner (LSW) theory by matter supply, and find a novel universal law governing coarsening kinetics, valid for any constant matter supply in the interface-resistance-limited regime.

Barely a month from submission to acceptance, with an Editor's Pick selection. Really one of a kind review process.
Extremely grateful to the editors of @JChemPhys and hope that it will be a meaningful contribution to the field. :)
