Abstract
Abstract Dip‐coated thin films of polystyrene were chemically modified (degraded) by low‐energy electron irradiation (0–100 eV). The resulting degradation was studied by mass spectrometry with variable electron energy. In the negative‐ion mode, H − was observed and was associated with two phenomena. The resonant structure at 9.1 ± 0.4 eV was associated with dissociative electron attachment. The energy of the resonance peak agreed with the results obtained for organic molecules. At a higher energy, a monotonic rise of the emission yield was observed and was associated with nonresonant dipolar dissociation. More mass fragments were observed in the positive‐ion mode. The predominant ion was H + at 100 eV of electron irradiation, and alkyl ions were detected at higher masses. Emission thresholds were measured for the most predominant positive ions. The shape of the emission curve showed that there was no resonant process in the formation of these ions. The energy threshold was measured at about 20 eV, and this meant that the carbon structure of the polymer broke with a recombination of the degradation products with hydrogen atoms before the emission occurred. Below 19 eV, there was only hydrogen loss; this implied that the possible degradation mechanisms did not break the general carbon structure of the material, leading to crosslinking. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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
