摘要
We report the measurement of the (8)B solar neutrinos interaction rate with the Borexino detector. The extremly high radio-purity reached in the Borexino scintillator, combined with the efficient software rejection of cosmogenic background, allows to investigate the recoiled electron spectrum, induced by 8 B solar neutrinos, down to the unprecedented energy threshold of 2.8 MeV. The rate of 8 B solar neutrino interaction as measured through their scattering on the target electrons is 0.26 +/- 0.04(stat) +/- 0.02(syst) c/d/100 tons. This corresponds to an equivalent electron neutrino flux of (2.65 +/- 0.44(stat) +/- 0.18(syst)) x 10(6) cm(-2)s(-1), as derived from the elastic scattering only, in good agreement with existing measurements and predictions.
