Low Q value weak nuclear decays are considered which have two-body final states (electron captures and bound-state beta decays). This opens the possibility for the observation of a process analogous to the M\"ossbauer effect, where the emitted (anti)neutrinos would be resonantly absorbed by atoms in a suitable absorber. Candidates for such a process are examined. Linewidths as small as the narrowest observed in M\"ossbauer spectroscopy may conceivably allow a new class of ν (disappearance) oscillation experiments.NUCLEAR REACTIONS Discuss recoilless resonant neutrino absorption by nuclei.
