Dissipation-Driven Selection under Finite Diffusion: Hints from Equilibrium and Separation of Time Scales
When exposed to a thermal gradient, reaction networks can convert thermal energy into the chemical selection of states that would be unfavourable at equilibrium. The kinetics of reaction paths, and thus how fast they dissipate available energy, might be dominant in dictating the stationary populatio...
