AB - Two-phase liquid argon time projection chambers (LAr TPCs) are prime candidates for the ambitious program to explore the nature of dark matter. The large target, high scintillation light yield and good spatial resolution in all three cartesian directions concurrently allows also a high precision measurement of solar neutrino fluxes via elastic scattering. We studied the cosmogenic and radiogenic backgrounds affecting solar neutrino detection in a 100 tonne fiducial LAr TPC operating at LNGS depth. Such a detector has the potential to measure the CNO neutrino rate with 5 σ sensitivity, and to significantly improve the precision on the measured <sup>7</sup>Be and pep neutrino fluxes.
