Solar Neutrinos in JUNO — •Sebastian Zwickel, Lothar Oberauer, David Dörflinger, Ulrike Fahrendholz, Matthias Mayer, Julia Sawatzki, Konstantin Schweizer, and Raphael Stock — TU München (TUM), Physik Department, James-Franck-Straße 1, 85748 Garching b. München

The detection of solar neutrinos can give deep insights in the understanding of the underlying processes in the sun and tests of the standard model. This is one of the scientific goals of the upcoming Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a 20 kt liquid scintillator detector. Its low-energy threshold, high energy resolution and large target mass make it a suitable candidate for high precision measurements. This talk will give an overview over the signal signature and relevant background sources including their potential suppression.

This work is based on past data analysis of solar neutrinos in the successful Borexino experiment and is supported by the DFG project number 284839683.
