Neutrino Oscillations in Moving and Polarized Matter under the Influence of Electromagnetic Fields

Abstract

Within the recently proposed ELSt99, ELStpl00, ELSt00 Lorentz invariant formalism for description of neutrino spin evolution in presence of an arbitrary electromagnetic fields matter motion and polarization effects are considered. It is shown that in the case of matter moving with relativistic speed parallel to neutrino propagation, matter effects in neutrino spin (and also flavour) oscillations are suppressed. In the case of relativistic motion of matter in the opposite direction in respect to neutrino propagation, sufficient increase of effects of matter in neutrino oscillations is predicted. These phenomena could have important consequences in different astrophysical environments.
