Abstract
The heat capacity C(p) of the liquid state of water confined to 2 nm radius pores in Vycor glass was measured by temperature modulation calorimetry in the temperature range of 253-360 K, with an accuracy of 0.5%. On nanoconfinement, C(p) of water increases, and the broad minimum in the C(p) against T plot shifts to higher temperature. The increase in the C(p) of water is attributed to an increase in the phonon and configurational contributions. The apparent heat capacity of the liquid and partially frozen state of confined water was measured by temperature scanning calorimetry in the range of 240-280 K with an accuracy of 2%, both on cooling or heating at 6 K h(-1) rate. The enthalpy, entropy, and free energy of nanoconfined liquid water have been determined. The apparent heat capacity remains higher than that of bulk ice at 240 K and it is concluded that freezing is incomplete at 240 K. This is attributed to the intergranular-water-ice equilibrium in the pores. The nanoconfined sample melts over a 240-268 K range. For 9.6 wt % nanoconfined water concentration ( approximately 50% of the maximum filling) at 280 K, the enthalpy of water is 81.6% of the bulk water value and the entropy is 88.5%. For 21.1 wt % (100% filling) the corresponding values are 90.7% and 95.0%. The enthalpy decrease on nanoconfinement is a reflection of the change in the H-bonded structure of water. The use of the Gibbs-Thomson equation for analyzing the data has been discussed and it is found that a distribution of pore size does not entirely explain our results.

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
