%X Several observed anomalies in the neutrino sector could be explained by a fourth (sterile) neutrino with a squared mass difference in the order of 1 eV<sup>2</sup> to the other three standard neutrinos. This hypothesis can be tested with an artificial MCi neutrino (<sup>51</sup>Cr) or a kCi anti-neutrino (<sup>144</sup>Ce−<sup>144</sup>Pr) source deployed near or inside a large low background detector like Borexino. The SOX project (Short baseline neutrino<b> </b>Oscillationwith BoreXino) aims for the detection of sterile neutrinos and will also allow to measure the neutrino magnetic moment, the electroweak mixing angle as well as the g<sub>V</sub> and g<sub>A</sub> coupling constants at low energy.
