Hyperfine Coupling in Methyl Radical Isotopomers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The hyperfine coupling constants (hfcs) of two methyl radical isotopomers, CH2Mu and CD2Mu, have been measured over a wide range of temperature in ketene and ketene-d2, from which the radicals were generated. The magnitudes of the hfcs of these muoniated methyl radical isotopomers are larger than those of CH3 and CD3 due to larger zero-point energy in the out-of-plane bending mode. In contrast to CH3 and CD3, where the coupling constants become smaller with increasing temperature, the negative hfcs of the muoniated radicals were found to increase in magnitude (become more negative) with temperature, passing through a maximum near the boiling point of ketene. This behavior is attributed to a solvent-induced change in the force constant of the out-of-plane bending mode. The opposite temperature effect known for CH3 and CD3 is explained by excitation of the low frequency out-of-plane bending mode. This effect is much smaller in the muoniated radicals, where the vibrational frequency is significantly higher due to the light mass of muonium; consequently, the solvent effect dominates at low temperatures.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
