Influence of Spin on the Dispersion of a Massive Dirac Neutrino in a Magnetized Plasma

Abstract

The dispersion law and the anomalous magnetic moment of a neutrino in a magnetized electron-positron plasma are investigated as functions of the magnetic field strength, the polarization state, energy, direction of motion, and mass of the neutrino, and the parameters of the plasma. The calculation was performed by the method of the time Green’s functions at finite temperature. Results for a massive neutrino in the limiting case are compared with the results of other authors, obtained earlier for a massless left-handed neutrino.
