Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recent observations by the ATOMKI Collaboration of anomalies in electron-positron pair production following proton capture on light nuclides has led to the postulation of a new boson with mass around 17 MeV. Here a team of scientists from the United States, Canada, and France presents the most detailed microscopic calculations to date of the proton capture reactions, and is unable to find a conventional explanation for the anomalies. While these calculations do not confirm the existence of the so-called X17 boson, they provide strong motivation for continued and independent experiments to investigate the ATOMKI results. Further refinements of the calculations may provide theoretical constraints for future data.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
