Inelastic x-ray scattering of dense solid oxygen: Evidence for intermolecular bonding
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The detailing of the intermolecular interactions in dense solid oxygen is essential for an understanding of the rich polymorphism and remarkable properties of this element at high pressure. Synchrotron inelastic x-ray scattering measurements of oxygen K-edge excitations to 38 GPa reveal changes in electronic structure and bonding on compression of the molecular solid. The measurements show that O(2) molecules interact predominantly through the half-filled 1pi(g)* orbital <10 GPa. Enhanced intermolecular interactions develop because of increasing overlap of the 1pi(g)* orbital in the low-pressure phases, leading to electron delocalization and ultimately intermolecular bonding between O(2) molecules at the transition to the epsilon-phase. The epsilon-phase, which consists of (O(2))(4) clusters, displays the bonding characteristics of a closed-shell system. Increasing interactions between (O(2))(4) clusters develop upon compression of the epsilon-phase, and provide a potential mechanism for intercluster bonding in still higher-pressure phases.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
