Searching for beyond the Standard Model physics using the improved description of 100Mo $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ decay spectral shape with CUPID-Mo
Abstract The current experiments searching for neutrinoless double- $$\beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:math> ( $$0\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>0</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> ) decay also collect large statistics of Standard Model allowed two-neutrino double- $$\beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:math> ( $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> ) decay events. These can be used to search for Beyond Standard Model (BSM) physics via $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> decay spectral distortions. 100 Mo has a natural advantage due to its relatively short half-life, allowing higher $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> decay statistics at equal exposures compared to the other isotopes. We demonstrate the potential of the dual read-out bolometric technique exploiting a 100 Mo exposure of 1.47 kg $$\times $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mo>×</mml:mo> </mml:math> years, acquired in the CUPID-Mo experiment at the Modane underground laboratory (France). We set limits on $$0\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>0</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> decays with the emission of one or more Majorons, on $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> decay with Lorentz violation, and $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> decay with a sterile neutrino emission. In this analysis, we investigate the systematic uncertainty induced by modeling the $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> decay spectral shape parameterized through an improved model, an effect never considered before. This work motivates searches for BSM processes in the upcoming CUPID experiment, which will collect the largest amount of $$2\nu \beta \beta $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> <mml:mi>ν</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> <mml:mi>β</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> decay events among the next-generation experiments.
