Description

The Borexino detector was a low-background real-time liquid scintillator setup with primary focus on solar neutrino spectroscopy. The detector has been in operation since May of 2007 up until October of 2021 at the underground facilities of Gran-Sasso National Laboratory.
Here, we present the results of our search for correlations between Borexino signals and known astrophysical transients (such as fast radio bursts, gamma-ray bursts and gravitational waves) that has been registered within the same time period.
