We present a detailed analysis of the spectral data of Borexino Phase II, with the aim of exploiting its full potential to constrain scenarios beyond the Standard Model. In particu…
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering: Terrestrial and astrophysical applications
M. Abdullah, H. Abele, D. Akimov +272
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) is a process in which neutrinos scatter on a nucleus which acts as a single particle. Though the total cross section is large…
