Photon-Neutrino Interactions in Magnetic Field through Neutrino Magnetic Moment
We study the neutrino-photon processes like γγ → νν̄ in the presence of uniform external magnetic field for the case when neutrinos can couple to the electromagnetic field directly through their dipole magnetic moment and obtain the stellar energy loss. The process would be of special relevance in astrophysical situations where standard left-handed neutrinos are trapped and the right handed neut...
متن کاملThe Strangeness Radius and Magnetic Moment of the Nucleon Revisited
We update Jaffe’s estimate of the strange isoscalar radius and magnetic moment of the nucleon. We make use of a recent dispersion–theoretical fit to the nucleon electromagnetic form factors and an improved description of symmetry breaking in the vector nonet. We find μs = −0.24 ± 0.03 n.m. and r2 s = 0.21 ± 0.03 fm2. The strange formfactor F s 2 (t) follows a dipole with a cut–off mass of 1.46 ...
متن کاملAstrophysical Bounds on the Photon Charge and Magnetic Moment
If the photon possessed an electric charge or a magnetic moment, light waves propagating through magnetic fields would acquire new quantum mechanical phases. For a charged photon, this is an Aharonov-Bohm phase, and the fact that we can resolve distant galaxies using radio interferometry indicates that this phase must be small. This in turn constrains the photon charge to be smaller that 10 e i...
متن کاملThe Moment Map Revisited
In this paper, we show that the notion of moment map for the Hamiltonian action of a Lie group on a symplectic manifold is a special case of a much more general notion. In particular, we show that one can associate a moment map to a family of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms, and we prove that its image is characterized, as in the classical case, by a generalized “energy-period” relation.
متن کاملEffects of different Form-factors in Meson-Photon-Photon Transitions and the Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment
The exact form of the form-factor associated with a meson-photon-photon vertex is not known. Different suggestions exist, based on constraints from QCD and on recent experiments. Four different form-factors are studied in this article. We calculate decay rates for the decays π → γγ, η → γ ee, η → μμ ee and η → ee ee and cross sections for the processes ee → PS ee, where PS = π, η or η. The resu...
