Abstract
We present a generic procedure for quantifying the interplay of electronic and lattice degrees of freedom in photodoped insulators through a comparative analysis of theoretical many-body simulations and time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (TR-ARPES) of the transient response of the candidate excitonic insulator ${\mathrm{Ta}}_{2}\mathrm{Ni}{\mathrm{Se}}_{5}$. Our analysis demonstrates that the electron-electron interactions dominate the electron-phonon ones. In particular, a detailed analysis of the TR-ARPES spectrum enables a clear separation of the dominant broadening (electronic lifetime) effects from the much smaller band-gap renormalization. Theoretical calculations show that the observed strong spectral broadening arises from the electronic scattering of the photoexcited particle-hole pairs and cannot be accounted for in a model in which electron-phonon interactions are dominant. The competing interactions were quantified using the scaling analysis in the weak fluence regime. We demonstrate that the magnitude of the weaker subdominant band-gap renormalization sensitively depends on the distance from the semiconductor/semimetal transition in the high-temperature state, which could explain the apparent contradictions between various TR-ARPES experiments. The analysis presented here indicates that electron-electron interactions play a vital role (albeit not the sole one) in stabilizing the insulating state, and establishes the comparison between lifetime and gap evolution as an important probe of correlated insulators.

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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
