Abstract
Background: Globular clusters show strong correlations between different elements, such as the well-known sodium-oxygen anticorrelation. One of the main sources of uncertainty in this anticorrelation is the $^{22}\mathrm{Ne}(p,\ensuremath{\gamma})^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ reaction rate, due to the possible influence of an unobserved resonance state at ${E}_{x}=8862$ keV (${E}_{\mathrm{r},\mathrm{c}.\mathrm{m}.}=68$ keV). The influence of two higher-lying resonance states at ${E}_{x}=8894$ and 9000 keV has already been ruled out by direct $^{22}\mathrm{Ne}(p,\ensuremath{\gamma})^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ measurements.Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to study excited states in $^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ above the proton threshold to determine if the unconfirmed resonance states in $^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ exist.Methods: The nonselective proton inelastic-scattering reaction at low energies was used to search for excited states in $^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ above the proton threshold. Protons scattered from various targets were momentum-analyzed in the Q3D magnetic spectrograph at the Maier-Leibnitz Laboratorium, Munich, Germany.Results: The resonance states previously reported at ${E}_{x}=8862$, 8894, and 9000 keV in other experiments were not observed in the present experiment at any angle. This result, combined with other nonobservations of these resonance states in most other experiments, results in a strong presumption against the existence of these resonance states.Conclusions: The previously reported resonance states at ${E}_{x}=8862$, 8894, and 9000 keV are unlikely to exist and should be omitted from future evaluations of the $^{22}\mathrm{Ne}(p,\ensuremath{\gamma})^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ reaction rates. Indirect studies using low-energy proton inelastic scattering are a simple and yet exceptionally powerful tool in helping to constrain astrophysical reaction rates by providing nonselective information of the excited states of nuclei.

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.
