Borexino open data (figure data, spectra, MC spectral shapes)
Borexino website data: Phase II/III spectra, fit components, likelihood profiles and MC PDFs of signals and backgrounds
Data files published by the Borexino collaboration on its web site alongside papers: the TFC-subtracted Phase-III spectrum with the best fit (PRL 129, 252701), Nature 2018 Phase-II figures (spectra, P_ee, correlations), CNO likelihood profiles and Monte Carlo spectral shapes of signals and backgrounds (open data of arXiv:2005.12829).
Data card 6/11 sections
| Summary | The public pieces of Borexino's spectral analyses. |
|---|---|
| Intended use | Spectral fits of solar ν rates (pp, ⁷Be, pep, CNO) with Borexino's MC shapes. |
| Out-of-scope use | Full reproduction of the multivariate fits: the TFC-tagged spectrum and radial distributions are not public. |
| Provenance | Collaboration web site, files attached to paper pages; no DOIs. |
| Validation | Newtrinos borexino_ph3 reproduces the CNO profile with background priors (verification entries). |
| Known limitations | No DOI or licence; web site unreachable at times (2026-10-23) — archive copies needed; the collaboration has concluded. |
| Preservation | DPHEP level 2 (simplified data) |
| FAIR | Findable Accessible Interoperable Reusable no PID, no licence |
