Abstract

In view of the importance of 12C targets as detectors of astrophysical neutrinos, we present new estimates of the cross sections for the neutrino-induced superallowed transitions on 12C, with a particular emphasis on the neutral-current induced reactions. The present calculation is made in a model-independent manner with a direct evaluation of the nuclear matrix element from the experimental data. Application to the astrophysical neutrino detection is also briefly discussed.
