Abstract

Neutrino oscillations in a constant magnetic field are considered. The backward influence of neutrinos on the environment is accounted for using the density matrix formalism. The entanglement of neutrinos with the magnetic field can destroy quantum coherent superposition of different neutrino states and thus lead to the suppression of neutrino oscillations. The master equation for the neutrino density matrix accounting for the effects of quantum decoherence due to entanglement with the magnetic field is derived.
