The authors' main claim These relations, which are valid for arbitrary microscopic parameters, such as the particle number, the temperature, and the interaction strength, unfold the critical role of contacts, a fundamental quantity of dilute quantum systems in determining the reaction rate of quantum reactive molecules in a many-body environment.

The abstract, sentence by sentence
The realization of ultracold polar molecules in laboratories has pushed both physics and chemistry to new realms. In particular, these polar molecules offer scientists unprecedented opportunities to explore chemical reactions in the ultracold regime where quantum effects become profound. However, a key question about how two-body losses depend on quantum correlations in an interacting many-body system remains open so far. Here, we present a number of universal relations that directly connect two-body losses to other physical observables, including the momentum distribution and density correlation functions. These relations, which are valid for arbitrary microscopic parameters, such as the particle number, the temperature, and the interaction strength, unfold the critical role of contacts, a fundamental quantity of dilute quantum systems in determining the reaction rate of quantum reactive molecules in a many-body environment. Our work opens the door to an unexplored area intertwining quantum chemistry, atomic, molecular and optical physics, and condensed matter physics.

Original abstract
The realization of ultracold polar molecules in laboratories has pushed both physics and chemistry to new realms. In particular, these polar molecules offer scientists unprecedented opportunities to explore chemical reactions in the ultracold regime where quantum effects become profound. However, a key question about how two-body losses depend on quantum correlations in an interacting many-body system remains open so far. Here, we present a number of universal relations that directly connect two-body losses to other physical observables, including the momentum distribution and density correlation functions. These relations, which are valid for arbitrary microscopic parameters, such as the particle number, the temperature, and the interaction strength, unfold the critical role of contacts, a fundamental quantity of dilute quantum systems in determining the reaction rate of quantum reactive molecules in a many-body environment. Our work opens the door to an unexplored area intertwining quantum chemistry, atomic, molecular and optical physics, and condensed matter physics.

Furthermore, the universal relations were also studied in other atomic systems such as the quantum gases with higher-partial-wave interactions [ref] , in one dimension [ref] and two dimensions [ref] , with three-body correlations [ref] , near a Raman-dressed Feshbach resonance [ref] , and with ultracold polar molecules [ref] .
