چکیده

The first result of the neutrino magnetic moment measurement at the Kalininskaya Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP) with the GEMMA spectrometer is presented. An antineutrino-electron scattering is investigated. A high-purity germanium detector of 1.5 kg placed 13.9 m away from the 3 GW reactor core is used in the spectrometer. The antineutrino flux is 2.73×1013 ν̄e/cm/s. The differential method is used to extract the ν-e electromagnetic scattering events. The scattered electron spectra taken in 6200 and 2064 hours for the reactor on and off periods are compared. The upper limit for the neutrino magnetic moment μν <5.8×10μB at 90% CL is derived from the data processing.

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...

Spin Effects for Neutrinos and Electrons Moving in Dense Matter

We give a review on a recently developed powerful method for investigation of different phenomena that can appear when neutrinos and electrons move in background matter with special focus on the spin phenomena. This paper is devoted to the problem of neutrino and electron motion in a dense matter with special focus on the spin phenomena. It has been proven in recent oscillation experiments that...

Neutrino Magnetic Moment

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.

Neutrino 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...

  The incommensurate spin -density –wave magnetism of Cr has attracted great interest since its discovery via neutron scattering. Although the existence of spin- density –wave has been confirmed by experiment but the calculations which have been carried out have not been able to predict the correct ground state magnetic phase for chromium yet. To predict the magnetic hyperfine field at nucleus ...
