with the Borexino detector at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. Electron
antineutrinos (ν¯ e) are detected in an organic liquid scintillator through the inverse β-decay
reaction. In the present work we set model-independent upper limits in the energy range 1.8–
16.8 MeV on neutrino fluxes from unknown sources that improve our previous results, on
average, by a factor 2.5. Using the same data set, we first obtain experimental constraints on …
