Pseudo-Dirac neutrinos and relic neutrino matter effect on the high-energy neutrino flavor composition by P.S. Bhupal Dev, Pedro A.N. Machado, Ivan Martínez-Soler

“…Specifically, the active-sterile neutrino oscillations over the astrophysical baseline lead to an energy-dependent flavor ratio at Earth due to the CνB matter effect, which is in principle distinguishable from the vacuum oscillation effect, provided there is an asymmetry between the neutrino and antineutrino number densities, as well as a local CνB overdensity. …”

Analysis of the Mechanism of Political Cost in the Complex Environmental Governance System by Xintao Li, Tongshun Cheng, Zaisheng Zhang, Li Zhao

“…Public behavior is the core element that affects political cost consumption. (2) When political costs are extremely depleted, the public will neglect economic interests, turn toward environmental interests, and choose the negative participation strategy, which destabilizes the system. (3) The political cost signal at the optimal equilibrium point not only warns the government not to take the desperate action of concealing information asymmetry but also allows the government to let go of its hands to deal with the environmental issues. …”
