Abstract

The cross section for photon neutrino scattering is calculated in the standard model assuming that the neutrino is massless and that the center of mass energy is small compared to any charged lepton mass. Although the scattered photons can acquire a (parity violating) circular polarization of order unity, the cross section in this limit is highly suppressed.
