A new upper limit on the axion-photon coupling with an extended CAST run with a Xe-based Micromegas detector
CAST Collaboration, K. Altenmüller, V. Anastassopoulos +62
Hypothetical axions provide a compelling explanation for dark matter and could be emitted from the hot solar interior. The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) has been searching for…
Background discrimination with a Micromegas detector prototype and veto system for BabyIAXO
K. Altenmüller, J. F. Castel, S. Cebrián +22
In this paper we present measurements performed with a Micromegas X-ray detector setup. The detector is a prototype in the context of the BabyIAXO helioscope, which is under constr…
AlphaCAMM, a Micromegas-based camera for high-sensitivity screening of alpha surface contamination
Konrad Altenmüller, Juan F. Castel, Susana Cebrián +12
Surface contamination of Rn progeny from the U natural decay chain is one of the most difficult background contributions to measure in rare event searches experimen…
First Directional Measurement of sub-MeV Solar Neutrinos with Borexino
M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller, S. Appel +94
We report the measurement of sub-MeV solar neutrinos through the use of their associated Cherenkov radiation, performed with the Borexino detector at the Laboratori Nazionali del G…
Correlated and Integrated Directionality for sub-MeV solar neutrinos in Borexino
M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller, S. Appel +94
Liquid scintillator detectors play a central role in the detection of neutrinos from various sources. In particular, it is the only technique used so far for the precision spectros…
Identification of the cosmogenic 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 C decays outnumber solar and CNO neutrino ev…
Experimental evidence of neutrinos produced in the CNO fusion cycle in the Sun
M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller, S. Appel +93
For most of their existence stars are fueled by the fusion of hydrogen into helium proceeding via two theoretically well understood processes, namely the chain and the CNO cyc…
A search for low-energy neutrino and antineutrino signals correlated with gamma-ray bursts with Borexino
M. Agostini, K. Altenmeuller, S. Appel +97
A search for neutrino and antineutrino events correlated with 2,350 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is performed with Borexino data collected between December 2007 and November 2015. No st…
Supernova 2010as: the Lowest-Velocity Member of a Family of Flat-Velocity Type IIb Supernovae
Gastón Folatelli, Melina C. Bersten, Hanindyo Kuncarayakti +23
We present extensive optical and near-infrared photometric and spectroscopic observations of the stripped-envelope (SE) supernova SN 2010as. Spectroscopic peculiarities, such as in…
Recent Borexino results and prospects for the near future
D. D'Angelo, G. Bellini, J. Benziger +85
The Borexino experiment, located in the Gran Sasso National Laboratory, is an organic liquid scintillator detector conceived for the real time spectroscopy of low energy solar neut…
