Abstract
Radio-frequency compressed ultrafast electron diffraction has been used to probe the coherent and incoherent coupling of impulsive electronic excitation at 1.55 eV (800 nm) to optical and acoustic phonon modes directly from the perspective of the lattice degrees of freedom. A biexponential suppression of diffracted intensity due to relaxation of the electronic system into incoherent phonons is observed, with the 250 fs fast contribution dominated by coupling to the E_{2g2} optical phonon mode at the Γ point (Γ-E_{2g2}) and A_{1}^{'} optical phonon mode at the K point (K-A_{1}^{'}). Both modes have Kohn anomalies at these points in the Brillouin zone. The result is a unique nonequilibrium state with the electron subsystem in thermal equilibrium with only a very small subset of the lattice degrees of freedom within 500 fs following photoexcitation. This state relaxes through further electron-phonon and phonon-phonon pathways on the 6.5 ps time scale. In addition, electronic excitation leads to both in-plane and out-of-plane coherent lattice responses in graphite whose character we are able to fully determine based on spot positions and intensity modulations in the femtosecond electron diffraction data. The in-plane motion is specifically a Γ point shearing mode of the graphene planes and the out-of-plane motion an acoustic breathing mode response of the film.

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 it
