M$ouml$ssbauer and transport studies of amorphous and icosahedral Zr-Ni-Cu-Ag-Al alloys
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The alloy Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu7.3Fe0.2Ag10 in the amorphous and icosahedral states, and the bulk amorphous alloy Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu7.5Ag10, have been studied with 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, electrical resistance and magnetoresistance techniques. The average quadrupole splitting in both alloys decreases with temperature as T3/2. The average quadrupole splitting in the icosahedral alloy is the largest ever reported for a metallic system. The lattice vibrations of the Fe atoms in the amorphous and icosahedral alloys are well described by a simple Debye model, with the characteristic Mössbauer temperatures of 379(29) and 439(28) K, respectively. Amorphous alloys Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu7.5Ag10 and Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu7.3Fe0.2Ag10 have been found to be superconducting with the transition temperature, Tc, of about 1.7 K. The magnitude of Tc and the critical field slope at Tc are in agreement with previous work on Zr-based amorphous superconductors, while the low-temperature normal state resistivity is larger than typical results for binary and ternary Zr-based alloys. The resistivity of icosahedral Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu7.3Fe0.2Ag10 is larger than that for the amorphous ribbon of the same composition, as inferred both from direct measurements on the ribbons and from the observed magnetoresistance. However the icosahedral sample is non-superconducting in the measurement range down to 1.5 K. The results for the resistivity and the superconducting Tc both suggest a stronger electronic disorder in the icosahedral phase than in the amorphous phase.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
