Sure, but chemical and thermodynamc models fall under far less rigorous logic than a mathematical proof. To again ape physics, would it not have been wrong to say gravitational waves were discovered when they first appeared in equation? I'm on mobile so I haven't read the actual paper yet but this isn't the sort of thing that can constitute 'discovery'.
- andbberger 8y agoWell it's all semantics at this point, but I think it's fair to say that showing gravitational waves arise from the equations constitutes discovery. It's just that we recently found out that there are conditions in the universe that produce detectable gravitational waves.
