Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

chemical shifts that correlate to changes in M-B distances and select B-H vibrational stretching modes. The B K-edge XAS spectra of the Zr and Hf complexes yielded a pre-edge feature that was assigned as B 1s → M-H-B π* based on comparison to time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations. The pre-edge transitions appear due to covalent mixing between boron and the metal, thereby demonstrating how B K-edge XAS can provide direct evidence of covalent three-center, two electron M-H-B bonding in borohydride complexes using boron as a spectroscopic reporter.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
