Since most of the neutrino parameters are well-measured, we illustrate precisely the prediction of the Standard Model, minimally extended to allow massive neutrinos, for the electron neutrino magnetic moment. We elaborate on the effects of light sterile neutrinos on the effective electron neutrino magnetic moment measured at the reactors. We explicitly show that the kinematical effects of the neutrino masses are negligible even for light sterile neutrinos.

The existence of a neutrino magnetic moment implies contributions to the neutrino mass via radiative corrections. We derive model-independent naturalness upper bounds on the magnetic moments of Dirac neutrinos, generated by physics above the electrow eak scale. The neutrino mass receives a contribution from higher order operators, which are renormalized by operators responsible for the neutrino magnetic moment. This contribution can be calculated in a model independent way. In the absence of fine-tuning, we find that current neutrino mass limits imply that $|mu_ u| < 10^{-14}$ Bohr magnetons. This bound is several orders of magnitude stronger than those obtained from solar and reactor neutrino data and astrophysical observations.
In this work we study the influence of a strong magnetic field on the composition of nuclear matter at T=0 including the anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) of baryons.
Neutrinos, being the only fermions in the Standard Model of Particle Physics that do not possess electromagnetic or color charges, have the unique opportunity to communicate with fermions outside the Standard Model through mass mixing. Such Standard Model-singlet fermions are generally referred to as sterile neutrinos. In this review article, we discuss the theoretical and experimental motivation for sterile neutrinos, as well as their phenomenological consequences. With the benefit of hindsight in 2020, we point out potentially viable and interesting ideas. We focus in particular on sterile neutrinos that are light enough to participate in neutrino oscillations, but we also comment on the benefits of introducing heavier sterile states. We discuss the phenomenology of eV-scale sterile neutrinos in terrestrial experiments and in cosmology, we survey the global data, and we highlight various intriguing anomalies. We also expose the severe tension that exists between different data sets and prevents a consistent interpretation of the global data in at least the simplest sterile neutrino models. We discuss non-minimal scenarios that may alleviate some of this tension. We briefly review the status of keV-scale sterile neutrinos as dark matter and the possibility of explaining the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe through leptogenesis driven by yet heavier sterile neutrinos.
We use an effective-field-theory approach to construct models with naturally light sterile neutrinos, due to either exact or accidental global symmetries. The most attractive models we find are based on gauge symmetries, either discrete or continuous . We give examples of simple models based on Z_N, U(1), and SU(2).

We calculate the magnetic moments of heavy baryons with a single heavy quark in the bound-state approach. In this approach the heavy baryons is considered as a heavy meson bound in the field of a light baryon. The light baryon field is represented as a soliton excitation of the light pseudoscalar and vector meson fields. For these calculations we adopt a model that is both chirally invariant and consistent with the heavy quark spin symmetry. We gauge the model action with respect to photon field in order to extract the electromagnetic current operator and obtain the magnetic moments by computing pertinent matrix elements of this operator between the bound state wavefunctions. We compare our predictions for the magnetic moments with results of alternative approaches for the description of heavy baryon properties.
