I have created a new core in alfresco.That is showing in solr admin pannel.But that is not coming in node browser window.can anyone tell me how to get there and how to use the core to store the index and files.
AFAIK, I think this is not so straight foward.
By default, Alfresco repository is using by default two cores for indexing in SOLR, alfresco core for "live content", and archive core for the "archive content". Each core needs a definition of an schema (schema.xml), and its corresponding configuration (solrconfig.xml and solrcore.properties). Not only the creation via SOLR interface.
Even if you configure additional cores in SOLR (some advanced cases may require it), this is not related with Node browser, which it is going to show you some kind of logical and hierarchical structure of the repository stored in Alfresco database.
Take in consideration that SOLR is an external search and indexing engine. SOLR cores may help to define data structure needed for indexing and searching content and the way of accesing it via SOLR API when querying, but not a direct change in Alfresco interfaces.

is there something name solr (lucene) collections that we can implement in alfresco solr to get better performance?
Yes, collections are part of the SOLR terminology. When you setup a SOLR cluster you can define different logical indices splitted in shards, between different SOLR nodes/machines. When you have only one server setup it is basically a core. Sharding may be a recommended practice when you have more than +50 million documents for example.

For obtaining better SOLR performance (in indexing and searching), you can try first with these recommendations:
