SPONTANEOUS CHIRALITY OF THE ORGANIC ENVIRONMENT AS A SIGN OF EXTERNAL RADIATION EXPOSURE

This study investigates the phenomenon of spontaneous mirror symmetry breaking as a fundamental mechanism underlying the emergence of chiral purity in biological systems. It examines the transition from a racemic state, characteristic of inanimate matter, to the exclusive homochirality observed in living organisms, wherein amino acids exhibit left-handed (L) configurations and sugars adopt right-handed (D) forms. Employing phase transition theory and mathematical modeling, the research elucidates the conditions under which symmetry breaking occurs through cooperative interactions and fluctuations in prebiotic environments. The study underscores the relevance of phase transitions in chemical evolution and highlights the necessity for experimental investigations into systems exhibiting autocatalytic amplification of chiral asymmetry.
