Abstract
Strength and deformation microstructure of zircon were investigated to 32 GPa at room temperature using a diamond anvil cell (DAC). The obtained X-ray diffraction data were analyzed using the lattice strain theory. The high-pressure quenched samples were analyzed by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Our results show a bulk modulus of 203 ± 13 GPa below 11 GPa. However, zircon is surprisingly sensitive to applied stress and demonstrates a wide range of volume variations at a given pressure under different stress conditions. The differential stress supported by zircon gradually increases from 0.4 to 5.0 GPa. Zrn(200) appears the most compressible plane, whereas Zrn(112) is the least compressible plane. A [001] lattice preferred orientation developed at 1 GPa and shifted toward [110] with pressure. In the 20 GPa quenched sample, lamellae of mechanical microtwins are present along {112}, with misorientation to host zircon grains 65° about <110>. The microtwins formed within the zircon stability field and all domains exhibit crystal-plastic deformation microstructures, suggesting nucleation of microtwins at <11 GPa. Above 18 GPa, zircon partially transformed to reidite. In the 32 GPa quenched sample, 20% of the grains was reidite, with no evidence of reidite to zircon reversion. Crystal-plastic deformation microstructures were seen in both zircon and reidite grains.

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
