【 摘 要 】

Relativistic electrons can produce electromagnetic radiation in moving background composed of neutrinos, that is the "spin light of electron in neutrino flux" (SLev) [1, 2]. In this paper we further specify the electron quantum states in moving neutrino background by introdusing the electron spin operator that enables one to define the electron wave function in an exact and close form. This justifies our previous studies of SLevin dense neutrino fluxes and derivations of the electron energy spectrum, the radiation rate and power, and also the emitted photon energy. We argue that the SLevcan have important consequences in different astrophysical settings.
