Neutrino Magnetic Moment
نویسنده
چکیده
Current experimental and observational limits on the neutrino magnetic moment are reviewed. Implications of the recent results from the solar and reactor neutrino experiments for the value of the neutrino magnetic moment are discussed. It is shown that spin-flavor precession in the Sun is suppressed.

For neutrino scattering from polarized electron, the weak interaction term in the cross section is significantly suppressed by the polarized term. The magnetic moment term does not receive any correction from the electron polarization. Hence, the study of the magnetic moment of neutrinos through scattering from the polarized electron leads to a stronger bound on the neutrino magnetic moment com...
متن کاملFlavor-Changing Magnetic Dipole Moment and Oscillation of a Neutrino in a Degenerate Electron Plasma
The standard model prediction for a magnetic dipole moment of a neutrino is proportional to the neutrino mass and extremely small. It also generates a flavor-changing process, but the GIM mechanism reduces the corresponding amplitude. These properties of a neutrino magnetic moment change drastically in a degenerate electron plasma. We have shown that an electron-hole excitation gives a contribu...
متن کاملNeutrino magnetic moment signatures in the supernova neutrino signal
It is known that if neutrino is a Dirac fermion with magnetic moment, then νL → νR → νL transition of supernova neutrinos may occur. The first stage of such transition is due to the neutrino spin flip inside the hot dense supernova core, while the second one – due to the neutrino spin precession in the galactic magnetic field on the way from the supernova to terrestrial detectors. This can resu...
متن کاملLimits on ν μ → ν τ oscillations and tau neutrino magnetic moment from muon neutrino - electron scattering
Limits on ν µ → ν τ oscillations and tau neutrino magnetic moment from muon neutrino-electron scattering Abstract If the tau neutrino has large magnetic moment it might be effectively used to search for ν µ − ν τ neutrino oscillations in muon neutrino-electron scattering in beam dump experiments. Using the present experimental limits on the magnetic moments of tau and muon neutrinos as correspo...

It is shown that recent results from the Super-Kamiokande detector constrain the tau neutrino diagonal magnetic moment to µ ντ < 1.2 × 10 −7 µ B for the case of ν µ → ν τ interpretation of the atmospheric neutrino anomaly. It is pointed out that the large magnetic moment of the tau neutrino could affect further understanding of the origin of the anomaly. Recent results from the Super-Kamiokande...
