Cowan-Reines neutrino experiment. Here an electron anti-neutrino scatters a proton to produce a neutron and a positron. Reines got Nobel prize in 1995. Neutrinos are produced in a nuclear reactor and then aimed at a water tank. Positrons then emit gamma rays which are detected by photo multiplier tubes.

Theoretically, one has to start from a neutrino-quark Lagrangian, then translate it to the nucleon level and eventually to nuclear level. To perform realistic nuclear structure calculations you may adopt the Donnelly-Walecka multipole decomposition method. (for the coherent process, please check the link below).
