Abstract

The radiative decay of neutrinos in a strong magnetic field that have relatively high energies, Em e , is studied with allowance for positronium contribution to the photon polarization operator in the vicinity of the cyclotron resonance. It is shown that the probability for the process ννγ increases substantially upon taking into account the positronium contribution.
