摘 要 目前的岩浆理论存在诸多不足，无法解决花岗岩的起源和大洋海山岩浆的来源等问题，其演化过程也模糊不清。在这里，我们根据中微子振荡诱导放射性衰变研究的最新成果，分析了大气中微子振荡的地球物质效应对地球内部放射性核子的影响以及该影响所带来的热效应，并提出了岩浆起源新机制。我们表明，大气中微子在地球内部传播时，能够与地球物质形成共振（即Mikhev- Smirnov-Wolfenstein，简称MSW共振）；该共振是大气中微子与地球物质的集体互动，它在强烈地影响大气中微子味转换几率的同时，对地球内部不稳定的放射性核子也产生影响，激发放射性核子进入激发态，增大其衰变几率，释放更多热能，为岩浆起源、抽取、运移和演化提供能量，也促成了岩石圈-软流圈边界（LAB）低速层的形成。

Effects of Matter in Atmospheric Neutrino Oscillations and the Formation of Magma
Abstract
The current magma formation theory has many shortcomings and is unable to address issues such as the origin of granites and the source of oceanic seamount magmas, and its evolution is ambiguous. Here, based on the latest results of neutrino oscillation-induced radioactive decay research, we analyze the effects of matter in atmospheric neutrino oscillation on the radioactive nuclei in the Earth’s interior, as well as the thermal effect caused by this influence, and we propose a new mechanism for the formation of magma. We show that atmospheric neutrinos are able to form a resonance with matter in the Earth as they propagate inside the Earth (i.e., Mikhev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein resonance). This resonance is a collective interaction between atmospheric neutrinos and matter in the Earth, which strongly affects the probability of flavor transitions of atmospheric neutrinos and also influences unstable radioactive nuclei inside the Earth. It stimulates the radioactive nuclei to enter the excited state, increases their decay probability, releases more thermal energy, provides energy for magma formation, extraction, transport, and evolution, and promotes the formation of a low-velocity layer at the lithosphere asthenosphere boundary.
