Abstract
Several fluorescence techniques have been applied to characterize the aggregates of styrene−maleic anhydride copolymers (SMA). The formation of hydrophobic microdomains was confirmed by monitoring the I 1 / I 3 ratios of pyrene dissolved in SMA solutions. Fluorescence quenching experiments indicate that protective quenching is occurring. The excimer-to-monomer ratio of di(1-pyrenylmethyl) ether and stopped-flow fluorescence measurements show that the interior of these SMA aggregates is extremely rigid, much more than that of typical surfactant micelles. Fluorescence anisotropy was applied to determine the hydrodynamic radius of these aggregates which was found to equal 1.7 ± 0.2 nm, in qualitative agreement with earlier measurements by small-angle X-ray scattering and small-angle neutron scattering. SMA aggregates have sizes similar to that of typical surfactant micelles, but their interior is frozen.

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
