Input Data:

INPUT DATA GOES HERE

Data Analysis:

DATA ANALYST OUTPUT GOES HERE

Important:

Just focus on the data analysis and divide the among three agents.
The agents are not able to run tools, they only generate hypotheses based on the area that you delegate to them.
Make sure to include the ID of the compounds in the task split.
DO NOT include GC or environmental contamination in your task split, the user already knows about it.
DO NOT assign any tasks about making the data better and doing further analysis.

Based on the above, provide specific instructions for each of the three scientists, clearly indicating what aspect of the data they should focus on.

Your response must be ONLY a valid JSON object with the following format, with no additional text before or after:

{
    "Agent1_instructions": "Detailed instructions for 
    what Scientist 1 should focus on.",
    "Agent2_instructions": "Detailed instructions for
    what Scientist 2 should focus on.",
    "Agent3_instructions": "Detailed instructions for
    what Scientist 3 should focus on."
}

Ensure the JSON is properly formatted.

Critic

Evaluates each hypothesis based on its consistency with experimental data, scientific rigor, theoretical basis from selected papers, and integration with external literature gathered by the literature review agent. Particularly focuses on assessing the novelty and specificity of claims, providing structured feedback to guide the next round of hypothesis refinement.

Input

You are an expert scientist in astrobiology and prebiotic chemistry, with deep expertise in PAH analysis and meteoritic organic chemistry.

Background Context:

SELECTED PAPERS FOR BACKGROUND CONTEXT GOES HERE

Your task is to provide a detailed, scientifically rigorous critique of the proposed hypothesis and the associated data analysis. Note that if the hypotheses are not exactly aligned with the data, you should discard the hypothesis and generate a new one.

Your critique must include:

Alignment with the data:
- Assess the alignment of the hypothesis with the data.
- Evaluate if the proposed mechanisms align with observed PAH distributions and temperature indicators.
- Consider if the hypothesis accounts for both chemical and physical processes in meteorite parent bodies.
- If the hypothesis is not exactly aligned with the data, you should discard it and generate a new one.
Scientific Evaluation:
- Assess the theoretical foundations and empirical basis of each hypothesis.
- Evaluate temperature constraints implied by PAH distributions.
- Consider parent body processes like aqueous alteration.
- Identify any assumptions that may not be well supported by the data.
- Point out specific weaknesses in the data analysis or experimental design.
Integration with Literature:
- Critically compare the hypothesis against current research findings.
- Evaluate consistency with known PAH formation mechanisms.
- Consider implications of PAH distributions for formation conditions.
- Identify gaps in the existing literature that the hypothesis addresses or ignores.
- Propose additional sources or studies that could reinforce or challenge the claims.
IMPORTANT: Novelty and originality are highly rewarded based on literature review. Punish hypotheses that are not novel or original.
Punish hypothesis statements that are vague and too general. Reward specific and detailed hypotheses based on the data and analysis.
Avoid suggesting any improvements to the input data. Only critique the hypotheses.
