New limits on heavy sterile neutrino mixing in -decay obtained with the Borexino detector
Borexino collaboration, G. Bellini, J. Benziger +87
If heavy neutrinos with mass 2 are produced in the Sun via the decay in a side branch of pp-chain, they would…
Characterization of positronium properties in doped liquid scintillators
G. Consolati, D. Franco, S. Hans +5
Ortho-positronium (o-Ps) formation and decay can replace the annihilation process, when positron interacts in liquid scintillator media. The delay induced by the positronium decay…
Final results of Borexino Phase-I on low energy solar neutrino spectroscopy
Borexino Collaboration, G. Bellini, J. Benziger +87
Borexino has been running since May 2007 at the LNGS with the primary goal of detecting solar neutrinos. The detector, a large, unsegmented liquid scintillator calorimeter characte…
The Waveform Digitiser of the Double Chooz Experiment: Performance and Quantisation Effects on PhotoMultiplier Tube Signals
Y. Abe, T. Akiri, A. Cabrera +12
We present the waveform digitiser used in the Double Chooz experiment. We describe the hardware and the custom-built firmware specifically developed for the experiment. The perform…
Measurement of ortho-Positronium Properties in Liquid Scintillators
S. Perasso, G. Consolati, D. Franco +5
Pulse shape discrimination in liquid scintillator detectors is a well-established technique for the discrimination of heavy particles from light particles. Nonetheless, it is not e…
Measurement of geo-neutrinos from 1353 days of Borexino
G. Bellini, J. Benziger, D. Bick +90
We present a measurement of the geo--neutrino signal obtained from 1353 days of data with the Borexino detector at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. With a fiducial exp…
Cosmogenic Backgrounds in Borexino at 3800 m water-equivalent depth
G. Bellini, J. Benziger, D. Bick +86
The solar neutrino experiment Borexino, which is located in the Gran Sasso underground laboratories, is in a unique position to study muon-induced backgrounds in an organic liquid…
