Abstract

In this comment, we show that the fundamental equation worked by Dvornikov in his paper is incorrect, which is given by the Dirac equation for a neutrino interacting with matter in a rotating frame (or curved space-time). In particular, Dvornikov incorrectly wrote/defined the interaction term (effective potentials or background matter) in a curved space-time. Consequently, one of his main results (if not the main one), namely the relativistic energy spectrum, is also incorrect (actually partially incorrect). So, starting from the correct Dirac equation with effective potentials in a curved space-time, we obtain the correct energy spectrum for a neutrino interacting with matter in a rotating frame. We observe that the square root of this spectrum is very different from that obtained by Dvornikov. In fact, in our case, the spectrum was obtained from a Bessel equation subject to a hard-wall confining potential, while the Dvornikov spectrum was obtained from an associated Laguerre equation. However, we note that the only correct thing in the Dvornikov spectrum are the terms outside the square root, which agree with those of the correct spectrum.
