Ex Luna, Scientia: The Lunar Occultation eXplorer (LOX)
R. S. Miller, M. Ajello, J. F. Beacom +16
LOX is a lunar-orbiting astrophysics mission that will probe the cosmos at MeV energies. It is guided by open questions regarding thermonuclear, or Type-Ia, supernovae (SNeIa) and…
Modulations of the Cosmic Muon Signal in Ten Years of Borexino Data
The Borexino Collaboration, M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller +113
We have measured the flux of cosmic muons in the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso at 3800\,m\,w.e. to be based on ten y…
Speeding up complex multivariate data analysis in Borexino with parallel computing based on Graphics Processing Unit
X. F. Ding, M. Agostini, K. Altenmuller +104
A spectral fitter based on the graphics processor unit (GPU) has been developed for Borexino solar neutrino analysis. It is able to shorten the fitting time to a superior level com…
The Borexino Thermal Monitoring & Management System and simulations of the fluid-dynamics of the Borexino detector under asymmetrical, changing boundary conditions

A comprehensive monitoring system for the thermal environment inside the Borexino neutrino detector was developed and installed in order to reduce uncertainties in determining temp…
Limiting neutrino magnetic moments with Borexino Phase-II solar neutrino data
M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller, S. Appel +104
A search for the solar neutrino effective magnetic moment has been performed using data from 1291.5 days exposure during the second phase of the Borexino experiment. No significant…
A search for low-energy neutrinos correlated with gravitational wave events GW150914, GW151226 and GW170104 with the Borexino detector
M. Agostini, K. Altenmuller, S. Appel +99
We present the results of a low-energy neutrino search using the Borexino detector in coincidence with the gravitational wave (GW) events GW150914, GW151226 and GW170104. We search…
The Borexino Thermal Monitoring and Management System
David Bravo-Berguño, Riccardo Mereu, Paolo Cavalcante +8
A monitoring and management system for the thermal environment inside the Borexino neutrino detector was developed and installed in order to reduce uncertainties in temperature det…
The Monte Carlo simulation of the Borexino detector
M. Agostini, K. Altenmuller, S. Appel +97
We describe the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation package of the Borexino detector and discuss the agreement of its output with data. The Borexino MC 'ab initio' simulates the energy los…
Seasonal Modulation of the Be Solar Neutrino Rate in Borexino
M. Agostini, K. Altenmuller, S. Appel +99
We detected the seasonal modulation of the Be neutrino interaction rate with the Borexino detector at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. The period, amplitude, a…
