Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Microbial surface thermodynamics correlated with bacterial transport in saturated porous media. The surface thermodynamics was characterized by contact-angle measurement and the wicking method, which was related to surface free energies of Lifshitz-van der Waals interaction, Lewis acid-base interaction, and electrostatic interaction between the bacteria and the medium matrix. Transport of three different strains of bacteria present at three physiological states was measured in columns of silica gel and sand from the Canadian River Alluvium (Norman, OK, USA). Microorganisms in stationary state had the highest deposit on solid matrix, compared with logarithmic and decay states. The deposition correlated with the total surface free energy (DeltaG132TOT) and the differences in DeltaG132TOT were mainly controlled by the Lewis acid-base interaction. Infrared spectroscopy showed that the increased deposition correlated with an increase in the hydrogen-bonding functional groups on the cell surfaces.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
