Abstract
We investigate the conditions under which particle multiplicities in high energy collisions are Boltzmann distributed, as is the case for hadron production in e + e - , pp, [Formula: see text] and heavy ion collisions. We show that the apparent temperature governing this distribution does not necessarily imply equilibrium (thermal or chemical) in the usual sense. We discuss an explicit example using tree level amplitudes for N photon production in which a Boltzmann-like distribution is obtained without any equilibration. We argue that the failure of statistical techniques based on free particle ensembles may provide a signal for collective phenomena (such as large shifts in masses and widths of resonances) related to the QCD phase transition.

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
