Abstract
This study explores the impact of viscous heating on decretion disks around Classical Ae (CAe) stars, with a focus on modeling the disk’s thermal structure. While photoionization is the dominant heating mechanism, viscous dissipation can play an important role in shaping the disk temperature, particularly for cooler CAe subtypes. Our models incorporate viscosity-driven heating and predict that shear heating has a negligible effect for early A-type stars (A0–A1), but it becomes increasingly significant for later spectral types, especially as the viscosity parameter (α) increases. This heating also influences the strength of Hα emission. Furthermore, our models predict a sharp decline in the number of emission-line stars beyond spectral type A2, a trend observed in CAe populations. However, for sufficiently high α values (≥0.3), a higher fraction of emission-line objects is expected even among later subtypes, such as A5, despite the lack of well-characterized CAe stars observed beyond the spectral type A4.

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
