Abstract
Room-temperature reactions of 46 different atomic cations with N 2 O have been surveyed systematically using an inductively coupled plasma/selected-ion flow tube (ICP/SIFT) tandem mass spectrometer. The atomic cations are produced at about 5500 K in the ICP source and are allowed to decay radiatively and thermalize by collisions with Ar and He atoms prior to reaction. Rate coefficients were measured for the reactions of first-row atomic cations from K + to Se +, of second-row atomic cations from Rb + to Te + (excluding Tc + ), and of third-row atomic cations from Cs + to Bi + . Primary reaction channels were observed corresponding to O-atom transfer, N-atom transfer, and N 2 O addition. Periodicities were observed in overall reaction efficiency, and these are scrutinized in terms of overall exothermicity, the presence of an activation barrier in the reaction coordinate, and the overall conservation of spin. N-atom transfer was observed to compete with O-atom transfer in the reactions of N 2 O with La + (4%), Ti + (22%), Zr + (45%), Nb + (35%), Ta + (40%), and Os + (60%). Up to three N 2 O molecules were observed to add sequentially to selected atomic cations as well as several monoxide and dioxide cations. A second O-atom transfer was observed with the group 4, 5, and 6 transition-metal ions (except Mo + ) as well as the third-row cations Re +, Os +, Ir +, and Pt + . The atomic ions W +, Os +, and Ir + formed trioxides in sequential O-atom transfer reactions, and Os + even formed the tetroxide OsO 4 + . Multicollision-induced dissociation studies with Ar buffer gas indicated thermodynamically controlled dissociation of TiO 2 +, ZrO 2 +, HfO 2 +, VO 2 +, NbO 2 +, TaO 2 +, and WO 2 + by the consecutive detachment of O-atoms while CrO 2 +, ReO 2 +, and PtO 2 + decomposed primarily by loss of O 2 molecules.

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
