Abstract
Abstract Tritium betavoltaics are one of the family of nuclear batteries which convert natural radioactive decay from a radioisotope into electricity that can provide continuous power without the requirement for replacement or recharging. Tritium is ideally suited to this application due to its high specific activity, low shielding requirements and relatively high availability. Owing to safety and environmental concerns over tritium leakage, metal tritides films are preferred as tritium betavoltaic sources. Titanium hydride and deuteride films were studied as analogues to titanium tritide films. The quality of the films depended on the temperature of hydrogen loading as films loaded at elevated temperatures (>100 °C) were brittle and delaminated from the semiconductor substrate while those exposed to hydrogen at room temperature continued to adhere to the substrate. For the latter films, evidence of hydrogen isotope loss was observed when left under ambient conditions over the course of a few weeks.

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
