The possibility of a radiochemical indicator employing an iodine-bearing liquid serving as a detector for astrophysical neutrinos is explored. The present Cl-37 experiment suggests that solar or supernova neutrinos incident on an iodine-bearing liquid will produce the noble gas Xe-127(tau1/2 = 36.4 d) which can be recovered and counted. The results indicate that the rate of neutrino reactions per unit volume of detector could be more than an order of magnitude greater than in perchloroethylene. The sensitivity of such a detector to neutrinos from galactic supernova is considered.
