Microwave investigation of the CO-CH4 van der Waals complex
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Rotational spectra of eight isotopomers of the weakly bound van der Waals complex CO-CH4 were recorded in the frequency range from 4 to 19 GHz using a pulsed molecular beam Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. For the isotopomers containing methane monomers of Td symmetry, namely, 12C16O-12CH4, 12C16O-13CH4, 12C16O-12CD4, 13C16O-12CH4, and 13C18O-12CH4, three rotational progressions were observed that correlate to the jm=0, 1, and 2 rotational levels of free methane. For those containing partially deuterated methane monomers with C3V symmetry, namely, 12C16O-12CH3D and 12C16O-12CHD3, only two progressions were recorded, correlating to the jk=0(0) and 1(1) rotational levels of free CH3D and CHD3, respectively. The van der Waals bond distance R, intermolecular stretching frequency nus, and the corresponding stretching force constant ks were derived from the obtained spectroscopic results. The results obtained for the jm=0 ground state are compared to the previous infrared and millimeter wave data. A 17O nuclear quadrupole coupling constant was determined from the resolved hyperfine structure of 13C17O-12CH4 and was used to obtain angular information about the carbon monoxide subunit. A Coriolis interaction was deduced from the irregular spectral pattern involving levels with jm=1. Qualitative information about the extent of the perturbation was obtained from a comparison of spectroscopic constants of different isotopomers.

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.
