Is energy produced when neutrinos collide with another particle?

[Scalymanfish]

I dont know anything about chemistry or physics, so this might be a stupid question. when neutrinos collide with lets say the nucleus of an atom, how much energy would be transfered from the neutrino?

[jtbell]

The neutrino gives up whatever kinetic energy it has. When a very high-energy neutrino hits a nucleus, the energy can produce many particles via quark-antiquark and lepton-antilepton pair production. This has been observed at e.g. Fermilab and CERN using beams of high-energy neutrinos, as far back as 40 years ago.
