Specific heat relaxation of an alcohol and implications for dielectric comparison
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The dynamic and the apparent specific heats of 5-methyl-2-hexanol were measured in its vitrification temperature range during its cooling and then heating at the same and exceptionally slow rates of 12 K/h and 60 K/h. The relaxation time determined from dynamic measurements is 48 s at 149.8 K. The relaxation time estimated from the onset of the apparent C(p)-endotherm measured on heating is found to be inconsistent with that determined from dynamic C(p) measurements. The fitting of a nonexponential nonlinear relaxation model to the C(p,app) data shows that beta varies slightly with the heating rate, and this is attributed to contributions to temperature-dependent energy from change in the hydrogen-bond population. The unrelaxed C(p) of the ultraviscous liquid is closer to that of its glassy state, thus showing that the vibrational part of C(p) does not increase in a sigmoid-shape manner when the glass structure kinetically unfreezes on heating. The results have implications for use of calorimetry in inferring the dielectric relaxation mechanism.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
