abstract = {We report the measurement of sub-MeV solar neutrinos
through the use of their associated Cherenkov radiation,
performed with the Borexino detector at the Laboratori
Nazionali del Gran Sasso. The measurement is achieved using
a novel technique that correlates individual photon hits of
events to the known position of the Sun. In an energy window
between 0.54 to 0.74 MeV, selected using the dominant
scintillation light, we have measured
10 887+2386−2103(stat)±947(syst) $(68\%$ confidence
interval) solar neutrinos out of 19 904 total events. This
corresponds to a 7Be neutrino interaction rate of
51.6+13.9−12.5 counts/(day⋅100 ton), which is
in agreement with the standard solar model predictions and
the previous spectroscopic results of Borexino. The
no-neutrino hypothesis can be excluded with >5σ confidence
level. For the first time, we have demonstrated the
possibility of utilizing the directional Cherenkov
information for sub-MeV solar neutrinos, in a large-scale,
high light yield liquid scintillator detector. This
measurement provides an experimental proof of principle for
future hybrid event reconstruction using both Cherenkov and
scintillation signatures simultaneously.},
