Sensitivity of the CUPID Experiment to Solar Neutrinos

ORAL

Abstract

    The solar neutrino flux is an important source for studying neutrino properties. Measurements of the solar neutrino flux can provide information on the neutrino oscillation effects, the solar inner structure and the Standard Solar Model (SSM). Previous studies by Ejiri et al show that double-beta decay detectors can be sensitive to solar neutrinos through charged current and neutral current interactions. 

    CUPID (CUORE Upgrade with Particle IDentification) is a bolometric experiment using scintillating Li2MoO4 crystals operating at low temperatures. With its high energy resolution and large crystal mass, CUPID provides an ideal setting for detecting solar neutrinos. In this work, we discuss an estimation of the solar neutrino detection sensitivity of the CUPID experiment.
