Description

Main features of resonant spin-flavor precession of neutrinos due to the interaction of their flavor-off-diagonal magnetic dipole moments with transverse magnetic fields in the presence of matter are reviewed. Implications of this phenomenon for the solar-neutrino problem are discussed. The neutrino conversion mechanism due to the RSFP can account for both the solar-neutrino deficiency and apparent time variations of the solar-neutrino flux in the 37Cl experiment. (author) 22 refs
