Changes in event soil moisture-temperature coupling can intensify very extreme heat beyond expectations by Douglas Maraun, Reinhard Schiemann, Albert Ossó, Martin Jury

“…Abstract The most disastrous heatwaves are very extreme events with return periods of hundreds of years, but traditionally, climate research has focussed on moderate extreme events occurring every couple of years or even several times within a year. Here, we use three Earth System Model large ensembles to assess whether very extreme heat events respond differently to global warming than moderate extreme events. …”

Mittag-Leffler Functions and Their Applications by H. J. Haubold, A. M. Mathai, R. K. Saxena

“…During the last two decades this function has come into prominence after about nine decades of its discovery by a Swedish Mathematician Mittag-Leffler, due to the vast potential of its applications in solving the problems of physical, biological, engineering, and earth sciences, and so forth. In this survey paper, nearly all types of Mittag-Leffler type functions existing in the literature are presented. …”

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. …”
