On the Most Powerful Chiral Influence on Biomolecules in Space

详细

Powerful astrophysical sources of chiral influence on biomolecules in the Galaxy and outside it in the cosmic scenario of the origin of life are studied. The effect of such sources and their precursors on sugars is based on right circularly polarized ultraviolet from bremsstrahlung of positrons produced by the radioactive decay of cobalt ⁵⁶ Co. The maximum mass of radioactive cobalt ⁵⁶Co is reached during Hypernova explosions; it can exceed ten solar masses. It was shown that the power of chiral ultraviolet from the Hypernova exceeds that from the type 1a Supernova and relativistic fireball approximately by factors of 4.5 and 9, respectively.
