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

M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller, S. Appel +93

Cosmogenic radio-nuclei are an important source of background for low-energy neutrino experiments. In Borexino, cosmogenic ${}^{11}$C decays outnumber solar $pep$ and CNO neutrino ev…
