On the fundamentals of quantum rate theory and the long-range electron transport in respiratory chains

Chem. Soc. Rev., 2024, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D3CS00662J, Tutorial Review
Paulo Roberto Bueno
The quantum rate concept v = E/h = c*/L implies relativistic electrodynamics, permitting the transport of electrons in long-range paths of length L and explaining the respiration mechanism if a suitable Boltzmannian statistical setting of E is applied.

Cathy Mulligan: Mythbusting The Hype Around Cryptocurrency and Blockchain

Most transactions in the financial system take place behind closed doors. Not so the bitcoin network, which runs on blockchain technology – on which transactions can actually be visualised. But what's the real deal when it comes to crypto? Is its vision of decentralisation and data integrity all its cracked up to be? Cathy Mulligan is a visiting researcher at Imperial College's Centre for Cryptocurrency Research and Engineering, and she's breaking down the blockchain hype and leading the dialogue on how businesses should use this technology.

Blockchain to Play Crucial Role in VR-Powered Social Media

Virtual reality media platform, Sensorium, has announced its membership in the Global Blockchain Business Council, or GBBC — a Swiss-based non-profit industry association for blockchain.

Sensorium will participate in GBBCs upcoming virtual forum on May 28, which will see the firms director of technology Alex Blagirev discuss his predictions for how virtual social media will change the way that people interact online.

Identity theft, fake accounts, etc. all will be to a large extent eliminated as human participants in the socially-virtual world will be required to verify their identity via the blockchain.
