Linear Relationship between Weighted-Average Madelung Constants and Density Functional Theory Energies for MgO Nanotubes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For systems containing large numbers of ions, calculations using Density Functional Theory (DFT) are often impractical because of the amount of time needed to perform the computations. In this paper, we show that weighted-average Madelung constants of MgO nanotubes correlate in an essentially perfectly linear way with cohesive energies determined by DFT. We discuss this correlation in terms of the relationship between lattice energies and cohesive energies. Through this linear correlation, Madelung constants are used to predict cohesive energies and average ion charges of nanostructures containing up to 3940 ions. Cohesive energies of MgO nanotubes are shown to converge to a value lower than those of bulk MgO. Using the slopes of the DFT versus Madelung constant plots, the average charges on the ions in the nanotubes are determined. For nanotubes containing the same number of ions, the relative stability of longer tubes versus disc-like structures is discussed.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
