From Nagasaki to Toronto Omond Solandt and the Defence Research Board's Early Vision of Atomic Warfare, 1945-1947
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In November 1945, Canadian physiologist Colonel Omond Solandt became one of a handful of experts on the effects of atomic warfare as a member of the British Mission to Japan (BMJ). The BMJ investigated the effects of the atomic bombs dropped at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, both on structures and people. Solandt’s casualty analysis and experience in Japan became the prism by which his pragmatic intellect viewed atomic affairs during his tenure as Chairman of Canada’s Defence Research Board (1946-1956), including the impact of atomic war on Canada. © Canadian Military History, Volume 18, Number 2, Spring 2009, pp.26-40.

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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
