abstract = {Borexino is a 300 ton sub-MeV liquid scintillator solar
neutrino detector which has been running at the Laboratori
Nazionali del Gran Sasso (Italy) since 2007. Thanks to its
unprecedented radio-purity, it was able to measure the flux
of 7Be, 8B, pp, and pep solar neutrinos and to detect
geo-neutrinos. A reliable simulation of the detector is an
invaluable tool for all Borexino physics analyses. The
simulation accounts for the energy loss of particles in all
the detector components, the generation of the scintillation
photons, their propagation within the liquid scintillator
volume, and a detailed simulation of the electronics chain.
A novel efficient method for simulating the external
background which survives the Borexino passive shield was
developed. This technique allows to reliably predict the
effect of the contamination in the peripheral construction
materials. The techniques developed to simulate the Borexino
detector and their level of refinement are of possible
interest to the neutrino and dark matter communities,
especially for current and future large-volume liquid
scintillator experiments.},
