Abstract: (Elsevier B.V.)

Up to date, resonant neutrino emission and absorption, although predicted more than half a century ago, has not been measured. We propose a new neutrino resonance experiment exploiting the isotope ⁵⁵Fe. Experimental features such as the use of sources, detectors and experimental conditions are discussed in detail. For the resonant neutrino absorption cross-section in the range of

10^{- 38}

to

10^{- 37}

cm², resonant Mössbauer neutrinos can be detected using high-activity commercially available radioactive sources in conjunction with a multi-detector system. Although the experiment has the same serious difficulties as other neutrino experiments, it offers unique opportunity in an effort to provide the first successful detection of resonant Mössbauer neutrinos. In the case of no signal, the proposed experiment will provide state-of-the art information and unprecedented limits on the cross-section parameters for resonant neutrino absorption.
