Abstract
We discuss the transition radiation of a neutrino induced by its toroi d dipole moment (tau) when crossing the interface between two differen t media with different refraction indices. A neutrino of 1 MeV energy emits approximately 10(-40) keV at tau = e root 2 G(F)/pi(2). This eff ect depends very slightly on the neutrino mass and has a finite value in the massless limit.
