Core-collapse supernovae resulting in black hole formation are expected to feature a precipitous decline neutrino luminosity. The authors provide considerable nuance this picture by considering non-radial emission both the spherically symmetric (Schwarzschild) and rotating (Kerr) cases. In each of these cases, they show that neutrinos affect luminosity cut-off shape interesting ways indicate ri...

Drawing on three key elements in Lonergan’s thought—emergent probability, the triad of progress/decline/redemption, and law cross—this paper explores struggle to remake some sense wholeness an era serve ecological decline cost be paid turn it around.

The countercyclical monetary policy is a policy that economists recommend to adopt in order to slow down the economic fluctuations. The aim of this study is to address the question that, in the presence of fiscal dominance and considering institutional quality (IQL), what the optimal monetary policy should be during the business cycles? To find the appropriate answer, first, in the framework of...

The environmental benefits of low-carbon technologies, such as photovoltaic modules, have been under debate because their large-scale deployment will require a drastic increase in metal production. This is concern higher demand may induce ore grade decline and can thereby further intensify the footprint supply. To account for this interlinkage known “energy-resource nexus”, energy supply scenar...

Acute Oak Decline (AOD) is a decline-disease that has distinctive symptoms and poses serious threat to oak. Our understanding of the causal factors AOD remains poor but it likely multiple biotic abiotic contribute deterioration in oak condition. There evidence indications above-ground tree health status are frequently reflected below-ground roots associated ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal communit...

Forest decline is perceived as a threat to forest health in many regions of the world. The decline of red spruce in the mountains of the northeastern United States is one well-known example. We evaluated the impact of spruce decline by considering its effect on the prevailing gap dynamics. We compared plant composition, height growth, and indices of resource availability in gaps to the forest a...
