Abstract
Due to the resonant nature of Brillouin scattering, delay occurs while pulse is propagating in an optical fiber. This effect influences the location accuracy of distributed Brillouin sensors. The maximum delay in sensing fibers depends on length, position, pump and Stokes powers. Considering pump depletion, we have obtained integral solutions for the coupled amplitude equations under steady state conditions and then calculated the group delay. The results show that moderate pump depletion (which is the optimized sensor working range) mitigates significantly the delay, and the maximum delay induced at resonance is only a fraction of Brillouin Optical Time Domain (BOTDA) spatial resolution, which means that the use of pulse width to define the spatial resolution is valid when Brillouin slow light is considered. We have shown that uniform strain and temperature distribution in a fiber gives the maximum delay induced uncertainty.

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
