Reaction(
    reaction_string: str,
    kinetics: AbstractKinetics,
    name: str | None = None,
)

An equinox.Module representing a single reaction channel.

This class encapsulates a single, unidirectional chemical reaction. It parses a reaction string to identify reactants and products, and associates the reaction with a given kinetic law.

Attributes:

• kinetics –

  The AbstractKinetics object governing the reaction rate.

• reaction_string –

  The string representation of the reaction.

• name –

  The optional name of the reaction.

• reactants_and_coeffs –

  A tuple of (species, coefficient) pairs for the reactants.

• products_and_coeffs –

  A tuple of (species, coefficient) pairs for the products.

• kinetics_species –

  A tuple of species names that the kinetic law depends on, beyond the reactants.

• reactants –

  The reactant species of the reaction.

• products –

  The product species of the reaction.

• required_species –

  All species involved in the reaction.

Parameters:

• reaction_string (str) –

  The reaction string, e.g., "A + B -> C".

• kinetics (AbstractKinetics) –

  The kinetic law for the reaction.

• name (str | None, default: None ) –

  An optional name for the reaction.
