IsoDAR provides a pure and intense [bar over v][subscript e] source with an average energy of 6.5 MeV produced through [superscript 8]Li β decay. This source can be paired with a large scintillator detector, such as KamLAND, to produce a sample of [bar over v][subscript e]-electron scatters that is more than 5 times larger than what has been collected before. Such a sample would allow for a 3.2% measurement of sin[superscript 2]θ[subscript W] and a sensitive search for nonstandard interactions.
