Bibliographic record
Abstract
The pnictides RE(2)Mn(3)Cu(9)Pn(7) (Pn = P, As) have been prepared by stoichiometric reaction of the elements at 800 °C. They are quaternary ordered variants of the hexagonal Zr(2)Fe(12)P(7)-type structure (Pearson symbol hP21, space group P6, Z = 1; a = 9.6444(3)-9.5970(7) Å, c = 3.9027(1)-3.7761(3) Å for RE(2)Mn(3)Cu(9)P(7) (RE = La-Nd, Sm, Gd-Dy); a = 9.9376(6)-9.9130(3) Å, c = 4.0194(2)-3.9611(1) Å for RE(2)Mn(3)Cu(9)As(7) (RE = La-Nd)). Of the four possible sites available for the transition metal, the square pyramidal site (CN5) is occupied preferentially by Mn atoms, whereas the three tetrahedral sites (CN4) are occupied by Cu atoms. On proceeding to smaller RE members in the RE(2)Mn(3)Cu(9)Pn(7) series, one of the transition-metal-centered polyhedra (Cu1) tends to become less distorted, while the remaining three (Cu2, Cu3, Mn4) become more distorted. Band structure calculations on La(2)Mn(3)Cu(9)P(7) confirm that Mn-P and Cu-P contacts provide the strongest bonding interactions. Electrical resistivity measurements on Ce(2)Mn(3)Cu(9)P(7) reveal metallic behavior with transitions at 165 and 18 K, probably of magnetic origin.

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.
