Cross sections for electron trapping by DNA and its component subunits I: Condensed tetrahydrofuran deposited on Kr
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We report cross sections for electron capture processes occurring in condensed tetrahydrofuran (THF) for incident electron energies in the range of 0-9 eV. The charge trapping cross section for 6-9 eV electrons is very small, and an upper limit of 4 x 10(-19) cm2 is estimated from our results. This latter is thus also an upper bound for the cross section for dissociative electron attachment process that is known to occur at these energies for condensed THF. At energies close to zero eV electron trapping proceeds via intermolecular stabilization. The cross section for this process is strongly dependent on the quantity of deposited THF. Since THF may model the furyl ring found in deoxyribose, these measurements indicate that this ring likely plays little role in either initiating or enhancing strand break damage via the attachment of the low energy secondary electrons produced when DNA is exposed to ionizing radiation.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
