NER
Named-entity recognition
gpt-5-mini
Instruction
Given a phrase, classify it is english named entity (e.g., persons, organizations, works of art) in Latin script, or not (e.g., literals, dates, URLs, verbose phrases). For disambiguation, the statement where the phrase occurs as object is also given. Please return a JSON object with `phrase` (string, the phrase being analyzed) and `is_ne` (boolean, indicating whether the phrase is a Named Entity).

-
A.
Ornstein–Zernike equation
The Ornstein–Zernike equation is a fundamental relation in statistical mechanics that links the total and direct correlation functions of a fluid, forming the basis for many liquid-state theories and approximations.
-
B.
Bogoliubov–Born–Green–Kirkwood–Yvon hierarchy
The Bogoliubov–Born–Green–Kirkwood–Yvon hierarchy is a set of coupled equations in statistical mechanics that describes the time evolution of reduced distribution functions for many-particle systems.
-
C.
Flory–Huggins solution theory
Flory–Huggins solution theory is a thermodynamic model that describes the mixing behavior and phase separation of polymer solutions by accounting for the size difference between polymer chains and solvent molecules.
-
D.
Smoluchowski coagulation equation
The Smoluchowski coagulation equation is a fundamental integro-differential equation in statistical physics that models how particles undergoing random collisions aggregate over time into larger clusters.
-
E.
Kirkwood approximation in statistical mechanics
The Kirkwood approximation in statistical mechanics is a method for approximating many-particle correlation functions by expressing higher-order correlations in terms of lower-order ones, simplifying the description of interacting particle systems.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
