Human acute neurophysiological perceptions associated with ELF flux densities up to 50 mT
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Current guidelines and recommendations limiting human exposure to extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field (MF) are based on the most reliable acute human neurophysiological exposure responses. However, the currently available perception thresholds are established on small sample size and non-replicated experiments. The current human study aimed to test MF levels leading to mahnetophosphenes perceptions at 20, 50, 60 and 100 Hz. Perception reported button-press were recorded in these 4 frequency groups in 55 randomly assigned magnetic flux density conditions. Results showed a frequency-dependent threshold for initial perception: 2.51 T/s at 20 Hz, 6.28 T/s at 50 Hz, 7.54 T/s at 60 Hz, and 12.57 T/s at 100 Hz; and for the 50% detection rate: 4.73 T/s at 20 Hz, 8.83 T/s at 50 Hz, 10.55 T/s at 60 Hz, and 33.46 T/s at 100 Hz. Since it is a linear correlate of the induced in-situ E-fields, the dB/dt metric was chosen to analyse the the data. It confirmed lower magnetophoshene perception at lower frequencies for a similar in-situ induced E-field.

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.
