Mitigating Muon Backgrounds for CUORE and CUPID

CUORE is a tonne-scale bolometric experiment in search of neutrinoless double-beta decay (0??????) of Tellurium. CUPID, the CUORE Upgrade with Particle IDentification, will use scintillating bolometers. While CUORE will place an upper limit on the effective Majorana mass ($m_{/beta/beta}$) in the range 40-100 meV, CUPID will fully probe the inverted neutrino mass ordering and improve sensitivity to $m_{/beta/beta}$ by a factor of five compared to CUORE to 12 - 20 meV. To reach this sensitivity, CUPID aims to decrease their experimental backgrounds by a factor of 100 compared to CUORE. In order to reduce the cosmogenic backgrounds in the region of interest, CUPID will implement a muon veto system consisting of scintillator panels and read out with SiPMs. In this talk, I will discuss the design and construction of the active muon veto system for CUORE and CUPID.
