Abstract
The issue of retarded long-range resonant interactions between two molecules with oscillating dipole moments is revisited within the framework of classical electrodynamics. By taking advantage of a theorem in complex analysis, we present a simple method to calculate the frequencies of the normal modes, which are then used to estimate the interaction potential. The possibility that such interactions play a non-negligible role in ensuring the effective functioning of the biomolecular functions is investigated. On the basis of experimental results reported in the literature and simple numerical estimates, it is found that long-range interactions involving electromagnetic fields of frequencies 0.1-1THz could be temporarily activated despite radiation losses and solvent dissipation. Moreover, the theoretical background used to derive the mentioned interactions sheds light on Fröhlich's theory of selective long-range forces between biomolecules. At variance with a long-standing belief, we show that sizable resonant long-range interactions may exist only if the interacting system is out of thermal equilibrium.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
