Abstract

We have studied the neutrino–electron processes in a matter with an external magnetic field of an arbitrary strength. Invariant squares of S-matrix elements, which have been obtained for such reactions using the technique based on the density matrix of a particle propagating in an external magnetic field, are valid in an arbitrary frame of reference moving along the magnetic field lines. The transition probabilities obtained can easily be generalized to the processes of interaction of a neutrino with other charged leptons and protons. The probabilities of the processes have been integrated over the transverse momenta of charged particles for the rates of neutrino–electron reactions as well as the energy and momentum transferred in them from the medium to neutrinos. The expressions obtained are written in the unified form for all neutrino–electron processes.
