Neutrino magnetic moment in a magnetized plasma
Description
The magnetized-plasma contribution to the neutrino anomalous magnetic moment is calculated. It is shown that, in a magnetized plasma, only part of the neutrino additional energy associated with the neutrino spin and with the magnetic-field strength contributes to the neutrino magnetic moment. It is found that, in contrast to results presented previously in the literature, the presence of a magnetized plasma does not lead to a substantial enhancement of the neutrino magnetic moment.
