TL;DR: The origins of life (OoL) is defined, how should approaches to OoL science be characterized, and a strategy for Origins of Life Research are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of topology on the conformations of ring polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the bond fluctuation method to simulate both nonconcatenated entangled and interpenetrating melts of ring polymers and found an exponential decay of the knotting probability of rings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Swelling of Olympic gels.
TL;DR: In this paper, the swelling equilibrium of Olympic gels, which are composed of entangled cyclic polymers, is studied by Monte Carlo simulations, and it is shown that Olympic Gels made of chains with a larger degree of polymerization exhibit a smaller equilibrium swelling degree.
Journal ArticleDOI
The formation and structure of Olympic gels.
TL;DR: While the formation of cyclic molecules follows mean field predictions below overlap of the precursor molecules, an enhanced ring formation above overlap is found that is not explained by mean field arguments.
Journal Article
The Swelling of Olympic Gels
TL;DR: It is observed that Olympic gels made of chains with a larger degree of polymerization exhibit a smaller equilibrium swelling degree, Q, compared to chemically cross-linked polymer networks, which is explained by a desinterspersion process of overlapping nonconcatenated rings upon swelling.
