This study shows that ammonium and alkylammonium counterions enhance RNA polymerization from 2,3-cyclic nucleotides under dry, geologically plausible conditions.

This study demonstrates that an isothermal prebiotic gas flow environment enables exponential DNA replication by concentrating nucleic acids and reducing salt concentration.

This study shows heat flows solubilize apatite, increasing phosphate availability for prebiotic chemistry by up-concentrating and boosting its solubility.
