Tóm tắt

The effect of the magnetic field on the properties of a massive neutrino is analyzed. A general expression is derived in terms of the self-energy operator of the neutrino in an external magnetic field of arbitrary strength. This expression is valid for any relationship between the masses of the neutrino, a charged lepton, and a W-boson. An anomalous magnetic moment of a standard neutrino is investigated. The probability of massive neutrino decay into a W-boson and a charged lepton is calculated for various values of the magnetic field strength.
