We show that a criticism made in hep-ph/0610294 against our paper Mod. Phys. Lett. A21, 1769 (2006) has no ground. We confirm that all results of investigations of the so-called ``spin light of neutrino (SL \nu)'' are incorrect because of…

Quantum mechanical equations of motion are obtained for particles and spin in media with polarized electrons in the presence of external fields. The motion of electrons and their spins is governed by the exchange interaction, while the…
