Neutrino dispersion properties in an external magnetic field

  • 1. Yaroslavl State University (Russian Federation)

Description

The neutrino self-energy operator Σ(p) in a magnetic field is calculated for the case of high-energy neutrinos, this corresponding to the crossed field approximation. The probability of the neutrino decay ν → e-W+ is found by using the imaginary part of the operator Σ(p). A simple analytic result is obtained in the parameter region that is the most interesting from the physical point of view and which was not considered earlier. The contribution of an external magnetic field to the neutrino magnetic moment is calculated. The result obtained here for this contribution corrects formulas available previously
