Abstract
The ISAC RFQ consists of an 8 metre long 4-rod split ring structure resonating at 35 MHz. The rods are vaneshaped and are supported by 19 rings. The challenge of the mechanical design is the stringent, +/-0.08 mm, positioning tolerance on the four rod electrodes for 150 kW cw operation. A 1.2 metre long prototype with three full-scale modules, each comprising one ring and 40 cm of electrode, has already been built and successfully tested to fullpower. This enables us to complete the basic electrical and mechanical design for the final unit. The initial 7-ring portion of the final RFQ will be assembled first, together with an off-line source and a portion of the LEBT, so that RF parameters and beam dynamics behavior in the injection region can be tested as soon as possible. For the final RFQ the cross-section of the vacuum tank will be square, rather than circular. This will facilitate alignment of the modules and copper plating of the vacuum tank. The scope of the paper is to report the latest results from the full power tests on the prototype and to describe mechanical and RF design features including RF coupling, alignment philosophy and the copper plating technique.

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
