Selection of molecular chirality by extremely weak chiral interactions under far-from-equilibrium conditions

A general formalism for chiral symmetry breaking in far-from-equilibrium chemical systems is presented. It is pointed out that slow passage through the transition point makes the system sensitive to very weak, but systematic, chiral influences. The general implications of this process for the origin...
