Abstract
A framework for performing event-driven, adaptive time step simulations of systems of rigid bodies interacting under stepped or terraced potentials in which the potential energy is only allowed to have discrete values is outlined. The scheme is based on a discretization of an underlying continuous potential that effectively determines the times at which interaction energies change. As in most event-driven approaches, the method consists of specifying a means of computing the free motion, evaluating the times at which interactions occur, and determining the consequences of interactions on subsequent motion for the terraced potential. The latter two aspects are shown to be simply expressible in terms of the underlying smooth potential. Within this context, algorithms for computing the times of interaction events and carrying out efficient event-driven simulations are discussed. The method is illustrated on a system composed of rigid rods in which the constituents interact via a terraced potential that depends on the relative orientations of the rods.

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
