Motion of a charged fermion with an anomalous magnetic moment in magnetized media

Journal Article · · Physics of Atomic Nuclei
A quantization method based on the use of lowering and raising operators is developed and applied to describing states of Fermi particles that move under extreme external conditions (strong magnetic field and dense matter). The efficiency of this method is demonstrated by applying it to examples of finding exact solutions of quantum equations that describe the motion of charged particles in a magnetic field and dense matter. For the first time, the problem of charged-fermion motion in matter and an external magnetic field is formulated and solved with allowance for the anomalous magnetic moment of the particle. Exact solutions for the wave functions and energy spectrum of the respective modified Dirac equation are obtained. The application of these results to describing fermions and neutrinos is of special interest for astrophysical applications.
