Electromagnetic properties of neutrinos: three new phenomena in neutrino spin oscillations

Abstract

In studies of neutrino electromagnetic properties we discuss three very interesting aspects related to neutrino spin oscillations. First we consider neutrino mixing and oscillations in the mass and flavour bases under the influence of a constant magnetic field with nonzero transversal and longitudinal components. Then we discuss the effect of neutrino spin oscillations induced by electroweak interactions of neutrino with moving matter in case there is matter transversal current or polarization. In the final part of the paper we discuss recently developed approach to description of neutrino spin and spin-flavour oscillations in a constant magnetic field that is based on the use of the exact neutrino stationary states in the magnetic field.
