MAKARA, SAINS, VOL. 15, NO. 2, NOVEMBER 2011: 185-192 EFFECTS OF NEUTRINO ELECTROMAGNETIC FORM FACTORS ON NEUTRINO INTERACTION WITH FINITE TEMPERATURE ELECTRON MATTERS *) Listiana Satiawati and Anto Sulaksono Department of Physics, Faculty of Mathematic and Natural Sciences, Universitas Indonesia, Depok 16424, Indonesia *) E-mail: listianasatiawati@ Abstract The differential cross-section of neutrino interaction with dense and warm electron gasses has been calculated by taking into account the neutrino electromagnetic form factors. The significant effect of electromagnetic properties of neutrino can be found if the neutrino dipole moment, μ , is ≥ 5.10 μ and neutrino charge radius, R , is ≥ 5.10 MeV . The -9 -6 -1 ν B v importance of the retarded correction, detailed balance and Pauli blocking factors is shown and analyzed. Many-body effects on the target matter which are included via random phase approximation (RPA) correlation as well as photon effective mass are also investigated. Keywords: neutrino, supernova atmosphere, temperature and matter effects 1. Introduction be also considered. Retardation factor should be added to the tensor polarization of the target particle. Pauli blocking effect which limits the possibility of the outgoing particle states should be also considered. The latter effect is known to significantly decrease the differential cross-section of neutrinos [1]. Based on the The neutrino interaction in hot and dense matters is very important tools to study the behavior of the neutron star and supernova, because neutrino is the most accurate information messenger about the state in the core of the star (see Refs. [1-2] and references therein). According to the standard model of particle physics, neutrinos are neutral particles and have
