Important remarks to Wolfenstein's equation for passing neutrino through the matter
Abstract
It is supposed that while neutrino passing through the matter a resonance enhancement of neutrino oscillations in the matter appears. It is shown that Wolfenstein's equation, for neutrino passing through the matter, contains a disadvantage (does not take into account the law of momentum conservation). It leads, for example, to changing of the effective mass of neutrino by the value of from the very small value of the energy polarization of the matter caused by neutrino which is equal to . After removing this disadvantage (i.e., taking into account this law) we have obtained a solution of this equation. In this solution a very small enhancement of neutrino oscillations in the matter appears due to the smallness of the energy polarization of the matter caused by neutrino.
