Solar neutrino with Borexino: Results and perspectives [PDF]

open access: greenPhysics of Particles and Nuclei, 2015
Borexino is a unique detector able to perform measurement of solar neutrinos fluxes in the energy region around 1 MeV or below due to its low level of radioactive background. It was constructed at the LNGS underground laboratory with a goal of solar $^{7}

Borexino calibrations: hardware, methods, and results [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Instrumentation, 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.

Identification of the cosmogenic $$^{11}$$ 11 C background in large volumes of liquid scintillators with Borexino

open access: greenEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021
Cosmogenic radio-nuclei are an important source of background for low-energy neutrino experiments. In Borexino, cosmogenic $$^{11}$$ 11 C decays outnumber solar pep and CNO neutrino events by about ten to one.

New limits on heavy sterile neutrino mixing inB8decay obtained with the Borexino detector [PDF]

open access: green, 2013
If heavy neutrinos with mass $m_{\nu_{H}}\geq$2$ m_e $ are produced in the Sun via the decay ${^8\rm{B}} \rightarrow {^8\rm{Be}} + e^+ + \nu_H$ in a side branch of pp-chain, they would undergo the observable decay into an electron, a positron and a light

Short distance neutrino oscillations with Borexino [PDF]

open access: diamondEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
The Borexino detector has convincingly shown its outstanding performances in the low energy, sub-MeV regime through its unprecedented accomplishments in the solar and geo-neutrinos detection.

Status of direct determination of solar neutrino fluxes after Borexino [PDF]

open access: diamondJournal of High Energy Physics
We determine the solar neutrino fluxes from the global analysis of the most up-to-date terrestrial and solar neutrino data including the final results of the three phases of Borexino.

Test of non-standard neutrino properties with the BOREXINO source experiments [PDF]

open access: green, 1999
We calculate the event rates induced by high-intensity radioactive sources of nu_e (51Cr) and of anti-nu_e (90Sr), to be located near the BOREXINO detector.

The Borexino Thermal Monitoring & Management System and simulations of the fluid-dynamics of the Borexino detector under asymmetrical, changing boundary conditions [PDF]

open access: green, 2017
A comprehensive monitoring system for the thermal environment inside the Borexino neutrino detector was developed and installed in order to reduce uncertainties in determining temperatures throughout the detector.

The nylon scintillator containment vessels for the Borexino solar neutrino experiment [PDF]

open access: green, 2007
Borexino is a solar neutrino experiment designed to observe the 0.86 MeV Be-7 neutrinos emitted in the pp cycle of the sun. Neutrinos will be detected by their elastic scattering on electrons in 100 tons of liquid scintillator. The neutrino event rate in

Neutrinos and (Anti)neutrinos from Supernovae and from the Earth in the Borexino detector [PDF]

open access: green, 2003
The main goal of the Borexino detector, in its final phase of construction in the Gran Sasso underground laboratory, is the direct observation and measurement of the low energy component of neutrinos coming from the Sun. The unique low energy sensitivity
