Abstract
The one-loop contributions to the effective action of conformally invariant neutrino and photon fields are calculated for the homogeneous cosmologies with small anisotropy. The problem of finding a gauge for the electromagnetic field in which the calculations can be carried out explicitly is discussed.Keywords
