HYDRA Multiphysics Framework Validates Thermal Threshold (35.8 ± 1.2°C) for Prebiotic DNA Selection and the Matter World Co-Evolution Hypothesis(Estimated Calculating Simulation)-(Theoretical Framework)
Abstract
We present comprehensive validation of the HYDRA (Hydrothermal Dynamics of Replicative Amplification) multiphysics framework for prebiotic polymer selection. Through stochastic simulations incorporating temperature-dependent kinetics and transport, we identify three evolutionary stages in hydrothermal pore networks: Stage 1 (RNA World, 40-48°C), Stage 2 (Matter World, 35-40°C) featuring co-evolving polymers, and Stage 3 (DNA World,
