Abstract
A collisional radiative model was developed in order to investigate the influence of dissociative recombination on the Saha–Boltzmann plasma equilibrium. As the dissociative recombination products are not well known, their relative importance was tested through comparison with the distribution of line intensities obtained in a microwave argon discharge produced at atmospheric pressure by a surface wave. It was found that the main dissociation products are the ground state and the 4s levels, the 5p and upper levels playing a negligible role. Because the higher levels are only weakly affected by dissociative recombination, they remain in partial local thermodynamic equilibrium. Therefore, the excitation temperature determined from these levels adequately describes the electron temperature. The model well reproduces experimental measurements of excitation temperature, rotational temperature, electron density, and absolute populations of the excited levels.

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
