Abstract
Cross-sections of erosion craters formed by vacuum arc discharges on graphite cathodes are examined using electron microscopy. These reveal erosion craters that are covered with a growth layer forming a continuous film on the arced surface. The film surface is composed of sphere-like structures similar to cauliflower diamond and to the emitted macro-particles (MPs) observed in coating experiments using graphite vacuum arc sources. The film thickness within the cathode erosion craters evolves with the mean values of the MP diameter and mean crater depth for four graphite material morphologies. These two parameters increase with a decrease in arc spot velocity. The growth layer shows a relatively porous columnar structure, with micro-Raman spectroscopy indicating an evolution from amorphous carbon (cathode base), to graphitic (middle), to diamond dominating the top layer.

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
