Borexino calibrations: Hardware, Methods, and Results

, 2012
Borexino was the first experiment to detect solar neutrinos in real-time in the sub-MeV region. In order to achieve high precision in the determination of neutrino rates, the detector design includes an internal and an external calibration system.

Tropicalization Enhances Mangrove Methane Emissions to the Atmosphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Organic‐rich mangrove soils release CH4, partially offsetting the climate benefits of high organic carbon sequestration. However, the local and global drivers and variability of mangrove CH4 emissions remain poorly understood. Here, we quantify water‐atmosphere CH4 emissions over hourly, daily, and weekly time scales in an Australian mangrove ...

Measurement of the double-\beta decay half-life of ^{136}Xe with the KamLAND-Zen experiment

, 2012
We present results from the KamLAND-Zen double-beta decay experiment based on an exposure of 77.6 days with 129 kg of $^{136}$Xe. The measured two-neutrino double-beta decay half-life of $^{136}$Xe is $T_{1/2}^{2\nu} = 2.38 \pm 0.02(stat) \pm 0.14(syst) \
