Simulation Study of CUPID Sensitivity to Low Energy Solar Neutrinos

Detecting low energy solar neutrinos through charge current (CC) interactions is a unique tool to examine various models in particle physics and solar physics, such as non-standard neutrino-matter interactions and the Standard Solar Model (SSM). While efforts to measure the solar neutrino interactions mainly focused on using other isotopes, 100Mo has been recently shown promising for its high reaction rate to pp and 7Be solar neutrinos.

CUPID (CUORE Upgrade with Particle IDentification) is a planned cryogenic rare event observatory using scintillating Li2MoO4 crystals. The excellent energy resolution and large isotope mass of CUPID can provide an ideal setting for detecting solar neutrinos with 100Mo. In this talk, we present a simulation study of the solar neutrino detection sensitivity of the CUPID experiment.
