Sumario:Symanzik’s approach to the description of quantum field systems in an inhomogeneous space-time is used to construct a model for the interaction of neutrino fields with matter. In this way, the problem of the influence of strong inhomogeneities of the medium on the processes of oscillations is considered. As a simple example, a model of neutrino scattering on a material plane is investigated. Within this model, in the collisions of particles with planes, a special filtration mechanism can be formed. It has a significant impact on the dynamics of subsequent neutrino oscillations which are analogous to the Mikheev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein effect at propagation of these particles in an adiabatic medium. Taking into account the possibility of the filtration process in a highly inhomogeneous environment can be useful in planning and carrying out experimental studies of neutrino physics. It can also be considered by investigations of the role of neutrino in astrophysical processes by means of numerical simulations methods.
