This paper shows that there can be induced radiative polarization of electrons along a magnetic field if they are irradiated by an electromagnetic wave in resonance with the difference between the electron energy levels in the field and polarized in the plane parallel to the field. The influence of a homogeneous magnetic field on weak processes is considered. It is shown that it induces an asymmetry of the angular distribution of neutrino pairs generated in the field and modifies the angular distribution of particles in processes in which one neutrino is produced. Some possible effects of the asymmetry are pointed out.
