Abstract
AtomDB is a free and open-source Python library for accessing and manipulating neutral and charged atomic species and their promolecular properties. It serves as a computational toolset, operating on an accompanying "extended periodic table" database, with experimental and computational data covering atomic species with a wide range of charges and multiplicities. AtomDB includes facilities for computing promolecules: local promolecular properties, constructed from the corresponding atomic densities, and scalar promolecular properties, computed from the corresponding scalar atomic properties, both taking into account whether properties are extensive or intensive. AtomDB is designed to be easy to use, extend, and maintain: it follows best practices for modern software development, including comprehensive documentation, extensive testing, continuous integration/delivery protocols, and package management. This article is the official release note for the AtomDB library.

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
