Abstract
The monomer concentrations for some simple micelle forming surfactants, octylammonium bromide (OTAB), sodium decyl sulphate, SDecS, and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) were determined from the NMR‐paramagnetic relaxation enhancement experiment (the NMR‐PRE) on the H‐1 spin lattice relaxation times for the surfactant protons as a function of the surfactant concentration above and below the critical micelle concentration (cmc region). The NMR relaxation times, determined from the inversion recovery method, decrease steadily as the concentration of the surfactant is increased above the cmc value. A second, simple method is proposed whereby the p‐value of the surfactant in the micelle is determined from the two‐site model via extrapolation of the observed relaxation rate data to high concentrations. The p‐values and the calculated monomer concentrations are compared to each other and to those obtained using the mass‐action and phase separation models. In most cases, the monomer concentrations appear to remain constant at concentrations up to 2–3 times the cmc value, and then begin to decrease thereafter. These results are compared to the trends in monomer concentrations obtained from other NMR experiments in other surfactant systems.

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
