A science writer explores chaotic phenomena and deterministic systems that produce random-like behavior, discussing the Lorenz water wheel, the distinction between genuine quantum indeterminacy and classical chaos, and plans for tabletop experiments to observe complex dynamics like convection plumes.
EXXOGEN released an open validation suite for its deterministic molecular simulation infrastructure, publishing datasets and scripts for independent verification. The suite demonstrates sub-Ångström accuracy, physical energy correlation, SE(3) symmetry preservation, and thermodynamic stability across benchmark evaluations, using first-principles physics rather than machine learning models.
