11. Note that while the trapping effect which we discuss may be difficult to investigate directly via experiment, there could be less direct effects due to the trapped neutrinos which are nevertheless of interest. There has, for example, been a recent discussion concerning the possible effect of trapped (Dirac) neutrinos on long-range interactions in stars: A. Yu. Smirnov and F. Vissani, hep-ph/9604443;
