Electromagnetic properties of neutrinos
A short review on electromagnetic properties of neutrinos is presented. In
spite of many efforts in the theoretical and experimental studies of neutrino
electromagnetic properties, they still remain one of the main puzzles related
to neutrinos.Comment: The talk presented by A.Studenikin at the International Conference on

Remarks on the forces generated by two-neutrino exchange
A brief up-to-date review of the long range forces generated by two neutrino
exchange is presented. The potential due to exchange of a massive
neutrino-antineutrino pair between particles carrying weak charge might be
larger than expected if the neutrinos have not only masses but also magnetic
moments close to the present experimental bounds. It still remains too small to
be observable.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures. One figure added. Accepted for publication in

The first result of the neutrino magnetic moment measurement in the GEMMA experiment
The first result of the neutrino magnetic moment measurement at the
Kalininskaya Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP) with the GEMMA spectrometer is
presented. An antineutrino-electron scattering is investigated. A high-purity
germanium detector of 1.5 kg placed 13.9 m away from the 3 GW reactor core is
used in the spectrometer. The antineutrino flux is . The differential method is used to extract the -e
electromagnetic scattering events. The scattered electron spectra taken in 6200
and 2064 hours for the reactor ON and OFF periods are compared. The upper limit
for the neutrino magnetic moment Bohr magnetons
at 90{%} CL is derived from the data processing.Comment: 9 pages, 10 figures, 2 table
\u3cem\u3eg\u3c/em\u3e Factor of the 2\u3csup\u3e+\u3c/sup\u3e\u3csub\u3e1\u3c/sub\u3e State of \u3csup\u3e172\u3c/sup\u3eHf
The g factor of the 2+1 state of 172Hf was measured using the perturbed angular correlation technique in a static external magnetic field. The result, g(2+1) = 0.25(5), is discussed in relation to the systematics of the previously reported g factors in the Hf isotopes and compared with the predictions of several models. An interesting outcome of the analysis presented in this paper is the agreement between the calculated g factors within the interacting boson approximation (IBA) and the results of a large-scale shell model calculation. This agreement supports the emphasis in the IBA on the valence space. The undershooting of the empirical g factors near midshell in both models suggests that they underestimate the role of the saturation of collectivity, which is explicitly incorporated into a phenomenological model that agrees better with the data
