Abstract

The influence of magnetized plasma on neutrino dispersion has been studied. The contribution to the neutrino magnetic moment due to the presence of a magnetized plasma is calculated. It is shown that, in contrast to earlier published data, the plasma-induced magnetic moment of a neutrino is, like that in a vacuum, suppressed by its mass.
