VIII. Earth Earns: An Open CoCreative Earthropocene to Astropocene PediaVerse1. Mind Over Matter and Energy: Quantum, Atomic, Chemical, Astronomic Realms Floreano, Dario and Claudio Mattiussi. Bio-Inspired Artificial Intelligence. Cambridge: MIT Press, 2008. Swiss Federal Institute of Technology computer scientists sketch a ‘new AI’ beyond machine-cybernetic efforts so as to model natural viabilities that exhibit “behavioral autonomy, self-healing, social interaction, evolution and learning.” Chapters variously survey Evolutionary, Cellular, Neural, Developmental, Immune, Behavioral, and Collective Systems that reproduce and express “the same processes that operate in nature” such as self-organization and dynamic network geometries. By this approach, it ought to be noted, as these creative attributes may now pass to intentional human furtherance.

A survey of artificial neural networks, DNA computation, nanoscale self-assembly, amorphous computing, cellular automata, genetic algorithmns, and artificial life on the way to a biologically-based digital future. Frei, Regina and Giovanna Di Marzo Serugendo. The Future of Complexity Engineering. Central European Journal of Engineering. 2/2, 2012. In this new Springer journal, Cranfield University and University of Geneva applied scientists offer another take on how might creative natural principles of organic evolution might be defined and carried ahead so as to reinhabit a better local and global, sustainable world. Complexity Engineering encompasses a set of approaches to engineering systems which are typically composed of various interacting entities often exhibiting self-* behaviours and emergence. The engineer or designer uses methods that benefit from the findings of complexity science and often considerably differ from the classical engineering approach of “divide and conquer”. This article provides an overview on some very interdisciplinary and innovative research areas and projects in the field of Complexity Engineering, including synthetic biology, chemistry, artificial life, self-healing materials and others. It then classifies the presented work according to five types of nature-inspired technology, namely: (1) using technology to understand nature, (2) nature-inspiration for technology, (3) using technology on natural systems, (4) using biotechnology methods in software engineering, and (5) using technology to model nature. Finally, future trends in Complexity Engineering are indicated and related risks are discussed. Gebhart, Valentin, et al. Learning Quantum Systems. arXiv:2207.00298. We cite this paper by ten theorists posted in Austria, France, Italy, the UK, and Germany as a 2020s example of this welling revolution as this long arcane realm now becomes open for public development. See also Building a Quantum-ready Ecosystem by Abhishek, et al Purohit at arXiv:2304.06843 for another avocation. Altogether in accord with the Quantum Organics section above, these entries strongly attest to a whole scale synthesis of a human and universe cocreativit, going forward. The future development of quantum technologies relies on facilitating system complexities with key applications in computation, simulation and sensing. But this task need deal with efficient control, calibration and validation of dynamic quantum states whereof classical methods still play an important role. Here, we review approaches that use classical post-processing techniques, along with adaptive optimization, to better study quantum correlation properties and environmental interactions. We discuss theoretical proposals and successful implementations across different multiple-qubit architectures such as spin qubits, trapped ions, photonic and atomic systems, and superconducting circuits. (2207.00298) Geng, Yina, et al. Engineering Entropy for the Inverse Design of Colloidal Crystals from Hard Shapes. arXiv:1712.02471. University of Michigan materials scientists including Sharon Glotzer and Greg van Anders continue with their frontier creations of novel structural forms by way of intentional applications of fundamental physical principles. Throughout the physical sciences, entropy stands out as a pivotal but enigmatic concept that, in materials design, often takes a backseat to energy. Here, we demonstrate how to precisely engineer entropy to achieve desired colloidal crystals. We demonstrate the inverse design of hard particles that assemble six different target colloidal crystals due solely to entropy maximization. Our approach efficiently samples 108 particle shapes from 88- and 192-dimensional design spaces to discover thermodynamically optimal shapes. We design particle shapes that self assemble known crystals with optimized thermodynamic stability, as well as new crystal structures with no known atomic or other equivalent.

We cite this report by Laboratory for Atomistic and Molecular Mechanics, MIT research physicists a current blend of properly informed technical LLM capabilities along with AI pattern recognitions which can then serve to reveal novel metallic compounds. For a historic record, my first patent in 1962 for a silver-indium catalyst came from a Handbook of Binary (eutectic) Alloys and the periodic table. Six decades later, one can observe in wonder this current person to planetary scientific spiral ascent. We construct a physics-aware AI model that integrates the advanced reasoning, rational thinking, and strategic planning capabilities of large language models with the ability to write and execute code, perform atomistic simulations to solicit new physics data, and conduct visual analysis of graphed data and molecular mechanisms. By employing a multiagent strategy, these capabilities are combined into an intelligent system designed to solve complex analysis and design tasks, as applied here to alloy design and discovery. (Abstract) Gianfrate, Antonio, et al. Reconfigurable quantum fluid molecules of bound states in the continuum. Nature Physics. 20/1, 2024. We enter this work by thirteen nanoscientists mainly at CNR Nanotechnology, Italy and Princeton University as another instance of mid 2020s Earthuman abilities to learn all about and delve into any depth of as an evolitionary project to begin an new intentional quantum phase cocreation. Topological bound states are confined wave-mechanical objects that offer advantageous ways to enhance light–matter interactions in photonic devices. Here we show that polariton condensation into a negative-mass bound state in the continuum exhibits interactive confinement to attain optically reprogrammable molecular arrays of quantum fluids of light. We demonstrate the scalability of our technique by extended mono- and diatomic chains of bound-state-in-the-continuum polariton fluids. (Excerpt) Gilder, George. Microcosm. New York: Simon & Schuster, 1989. An early advocate of the global Internet revolution extols the triumph of emergent mind over recalcitrant matter which augurs for an exuberant recreation of the material realm. Girovsky, Jan, et al. Emergence of Quasiparticle Bloch States in Artificial Crystals Crafted by Atom-by-Atom. SciPost Physics. 2/020, 2017. Quantum Nanoscience, Delft University of Technology and Iberian Nanotechnology, Portugal researchers including Sander Otte provide another example of a collaborative humanity commencing a second material creation. As this section reports, by virtue of deep quantum, atomic, molecular techniques, along with computational acumen, it increasingly seems, as seemingly intended, that human beings are meant to take it anew from here on. Visit the Otte Lab publications page for more articles such as Atomic Spin-Chain Realization of a Model for Quantum Criticality. The interaction of electrons with a periodic potential of atoms in crystalline solids gives rise to band structure. The band structure of existing materials can be measured by photoemission spectroscopy and accurately understood in terms of the tight-binding model, however not many experimental approaches exist that allow to tailor artificial crystal lattices using a bottom-up approach. The ability to engineer and study atomically crafted designer materials by scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy helps to understand the emergence of material properties. Here, we use atom manipulation of individual vacancies in a chlorine monolayer on Cu(100) to construct one- and two-dimensional structures of various densities and sizes. Local STS measurements reveal the emergence of quasiparticle bands, evidenced by standing Bloch waves, with tuneable dispersion. (Abstract) Giuliani, Sameul, et al. Superheavy Elements: Oganesson and Beyond. Reviews of Modern Physics. 91/011001, 2019. Nine physicists from the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory and Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, USA, University of Erlangen and Technical University Darmstadt, Germany, Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre, India, and Massey University, New Zealand review the state of past, present and future art as human ingenuity, now of a global scale, has been able to discover, arrange, and begin to draw forth atomic elements. See also a special Periodic Table sections in Nature for January 31, 2019, and Science for February 1, 2019. During the last decade, six new superheavy elements were added into the seventh row of the periodic table. This milestone was followed by proclaiming 2019 the International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements by the United Nations General Assembly. According to theory, due to their large atomic numbers, the new arrivals are expected to be qualitatively and quantitatively different from lighter species. The questions pertaining to superheavy atoms and nuclei are in the forefront of research in nuclear and atomic physics and chemistry. This Colloquium survey offers a broad perspective on the field and outlines future challenges. (Abstract) Goral, Prashun, et al. Computationally Guided Discovery of Thermoelectric Materials. Nature Reviews Materials. 2/17053, 2017. We add this work by National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Colorado, researchers as a report of nascent abilities to delve into atomic and electronic structures so as to create novel, effective substances. The potential for advances in thermoelectric materials, and thus solid-state refrigeration and power generation, is immense. Progress so far has been limited by both the breadth and diversity of the chemical space and the serial nature of experimental work. In this Review, we discuss how recent computational advances are revolutionizing our ability to predict electron and phonon transport and scattering, as well as materials dopability, and we examine efficient approaches to calculating critical transport properties across large chemical spaces. Through computational predictions for both materials searches and design, a new paradigm in thermoelectric materials discovery is emerging. (Abstract excerpt) Greco, Ralph, et al, eds.
