Abstract
We have used the technique of scanning force microscopy (SFM) for studying the interaction of the bacteria A. ferrooxidans with the surface of the mineral pyrite. These bacteria are important to study with regard to acidification of streams and the environmental impact of such acidification. A. ferrooxidans cells readily colonize the pyrite surface, forming a tight mineral seal between the cell and the pyrite substrate. These bacteria subsequently may grow under pH neutral conditions, biooxidizing the underlying pyrite; this process creates etch pits in the pyrite. On average, these etch pits are 1.2 microns in lateral dimension and approximately 220 nm deep.

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
