report
The enthalpy of formation of the YbNi2 phase at 298K is predicted to be -37.6 kJ/mol-atom, which is more negative than the experimental values reported by Brutti et al. [13], but very close to the lower bound of the measurement uncertainty.

Uncertainty budget

Components kept separate, in the value's unit (literature SCHEMA.md, UNCERTAINTY_CALIBRATION.md): effective = max(sqrt(max(printed, reading, method)^2 + composition^2 + conversion^2), scatter). The method floor is the robust between-study scatter of the method class in ORCHID (calibrated) or a documented prior; printed values and printed uncertainties are unchanged.
