Summary:A general expression for the neutrino self-energy operator in plasmas was obtained in the limit of ultrahigh energies. Quantitative estimations were performed for the boundaries of the region kinematically allowed for the “neutrino-spin-light” process. An analysis of the additional neutrino energy in plasmas revealed that, in the cases where neutrino spin light was kinematically allowed, the processes and would be dominant.
