• A spectral fit is applied including the following signal + all intrinsic<br />

background comp<strong>on</strong>ents.<br />

– 7 Be, 85 Kr, 14 C, 11 C<br />

– 210 Bi (very similar to CNO in this limited energy regi<strong>on</strong>)<br />

– pp, pep, 8 B, <strong>and</strong> CNO neutrinos fixed at SSM-LMA value<br />

• Fit with <strong>and</strong> without statistical subtracti<strong>on</strong> of 210 Po events, based <strong>on</strong> α/β<br />

pulse shape discriminati<strong>on</strong>.<br />

• Two independent methods (MC based <strong>and</strong> analytical) were applied.<br />
