Abstract: (Elsevier)
We discuss the sensitivity of magnetic transitions in nuclei like 12 C, to a small neutrino magnetic moment, and its implications for current and future experiments. We also point out that coherent neutrino-nuclear elastic scattering in low-temperature detectors, might improve the present laboratory bounds on the neutrino magnetic moment by an order of magnitude.
