Codimension-two points in annular electroconvection as a function of aspect ratio
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We rigorously derive from first principles the generic Landau amplitude equation that describes the primary bifurcation in electrically driven convection. Our model accurately represents the experimental system: a weakly conducting, submicron thick liquid crystal film suspended between concentric circular electrodes and driven by an applied voltage between its inner and outer edges. We explicitly calculate the coefficient g of the leading cubic nonlinearity and systematically study its dependence on the system's geometrical and material parameters. The radius ratio alpha quantifies the film's geometry while a dimensionless number P , similar to the Prandtl number, fixes the ratio of the fluid's electrical and viscous relaxation times. Our calculations show that for fixed alpha, g is a decreasing function of P , as P becomes smaller, and is nearly constant for P> or =1 . As P-->0, g-->infinity. We find that g is a nontrivial and discontinuous function of alpha. We show that the discontinuities occur at codimension-two points that are accessed by varying alpha.

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.
