“…The geodynamic approach with its hypothesis of convective currents in the mantle would imply a faster dissipation of primordial heat, estimating values below the average of ≈10 TW. For the three radiogenic heat flux values predicted by the models (Table 1) the Borexino and KamLAND experiments [81] [82] provide result of 8 -16 TW (best value) and 18-28 TW (best value) respectively (Table 1). With these values, the sum of radiogenic (average KamLAND-Borexino ≈ 18 TW, average Borexino ≈ 24 TW, maximum Borexino ≈ 28 TW) and primordial heat (mean ≈ 10 TW) differs more markedly from the surface heat flux value.…”

“…However none of them necessarily implies a link between Expanding Earth and hydrodynamic gravitation with a central torrent. Recently, from some more refined experiments including the Borexino at Gran Sasso in Italy, and KamLAND on the island of Honshu in Japan, designed to measure the radiogenic heat of the Earth from neutrino flux [81] [82] and from a series of cartographic experiments (see Figure 1 and Figure 2) awareness has grown that the cause of expansion could be a flow of aether converging into the planet and transforming into ordinary structured matter (first particles and then atoms) along the journey from surface to geocenter [21].…”

Earth Science observations and the Borexino and KamLAND geoneutrino experiments provide clues on the role of aether in the evolution of the Earth, planets, and all other universal structures. Analysis of the problem of storage of aether entering celestial bodies led to a hydrodynamic explanation of gravitation which in turn was found to be closely related to the expanding Earth and to several other phenomena. Variable radius paleogeography provides an approximate assessment of the quantity of ordinary matter added to the planet per time unit, and some inferences about the Earth's inner energy balance. The aether density, flow rate, and velocity are computed with the help of astrophysics. The origins of cosmological and gravitational redshift are unified under the single cause of gravitation. This is linked to the similar but not interchangeable concept of tired light, which was considered very plausible by cosmologists like Edwin Hubble and Fritz Zwicky. A superluminal speed was calculated for aether at the Earth's surface. INFN experiments confirm hydrodynamic gravitation and superluminal velocities, and it is possible to identify interrelations of aether parameters with the currently known cosmological parameters H 0 , G, and c. Unification of hydrodynamic gravitation and the expansion of the celestial bodies through the existence of a minor dissipative force, a non-Newtonian concept, involves a revision of the theories of physics and cosmology, in which the currently accepted laws of physics will be only considered good approximations of a more complex reality.

“…I. Thanks to its unprecedented radio-purity, Borexino has also set a lot of limits on rare processes [19][20][21][22][23] and performed other neutrino physics studies, as e.g. geo-neutrino detection (for review, see e.g.…”

“…Besides the CNO analysis, the MLP α/β tagging was used in many other analyses published by the Borexino Collaboration. In particular, it played an important role in the high significance detection of the seasonal modulation of 7 Be neutrinos due to the Earth orbit eccentricity [37], for the reduction of the 210 Po component in the region of interest of the 7 Be spectrum. This analysis was updated including the entire Phase-II and Phase-III data set, leading to the first independent measurement of the Earth orbit eccentricity with only solar neutrinos [38].…”

“…In the geo-neutrino analysis, the MLP was used in the event selection with a high performance even at large radii (∼4m) close to the Nylon vessel [24] and for the 210 Po background estimation for the neutron background induced by alpha decays. In addition, the MLP selection was used for the space and time selection of the 210 Po data events for the accurate tuning of Monte Carlo used for simulating the 210 Po spectrum in Phase-II [39] and Phase-III. In particular, this study played an important role in the comprehensive analysis of the pp chain [12,13].…”

Borexino has been a neutrino detector based on ultrapure liquid scintillator, located at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy. Its main scientific goal was the real-time measurement of solar neutrino fluxes, which play an irreplaceable role for the comprehension of the mechanisms powering our star. Over the past two years, the Borexino collaboration has pursued the improvement of the CNO flux measurement, obtaining further indications about the solar metallicity. In a parallel way, Borexino has demonstrated for the first time the possibility of exploiting the directional Cherenkov information, in a liquid scintillator detector, for the detection of sub-MeV solar neutrinos.
