Abstract
A general method for very fast and efficient optical healing of crystalline polymers is reported. By loading a very small amount of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in either poly(ethylene oxide) (Tm ≈ 63 °C) or low-density polyethylene (Tm ≈ 103 °C), the heat released upon surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption of 532 nm light by AuNPs can melt crystallites in the interfacial region of two polymer pieces brought into contact; and the subsequent recrystallization of polymer chains on cooling merges the two pieces into one. The fracture strength of such repaired sample can reach the level of the undamaged polymer after 10 s laser exposure. Moreover, in addition to an ability of long-distance remote and spatially selective healing, the optical method also works for polymer samples immersed in water.

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
