Abstract

We derive relative upper bounds on the effective magnetic moment of Dirac neutrinos from comparison of the standard weak and electromagnetic mechanisms of the neutrino luminosity due to the Compton-like photoproduction of neutrino pairs in a degenerate gas of electrons on the lowest Landau level in a strong magnetic field. These bounds are close to the known astrophysical and laboratory ones.
