The Spatial Distribution of Atomic Carbon Emission in the Giant Molecular Cloud NGC 604‐2
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We have mapped a giant molecular cloud in the giant H II region NGC 604 in M33 in the 492 GHz 3 P 1 → 3 P 0 transition of neutral atomic carbon using the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. We find the distribution of the [C I] emission to be asymmetric with respect to the CO J = 1 → 0 emission, with the peak of the [C I] emission offset toward the direction of the center of the H II region. In addition, the line ratio I / I CO is highest (~0.2) facing the H II region and lowest (≲0.1) away from it. These asymmetries indicate an edge-on morphology where the [C I] emission is strongest on the side of the cloud facing the center of the H II region and not detected at all on the opposite side This suggests that the sources of the incident flux creating C from the dissociation of CO are the massive stars of the H II region. The lowest line ratios are similar to what is observed in Galactic molecular clouds, while the highest are similar to starburst galaxies and other regions of intense star formation. The column density ratio, N (C)/ N (H 2 ) is a few × 10 -6 , in general agreement with models of photodissociation regions.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
