Status of the HOLMES Experiment to Directly Measure the Neutrino Mass
A. Nucciotti, B. Alpert, M. Balata +35
The assessment of neutrino absolute mass scale is still a crucial challenge in today particle physics and cosmology. Beta or electron capture spectrum end-point study is currently…
Measuring the electron neutrino mass with improved sensitivity: the HOLMES experiment
A. Giachero, B. Alpert, D. Becker +39
HOLMES is a new experiment aiming at directly measuring the neutrino mass with a sensitivity below 2 eV. HOLMES will perform a calorimetric measurement of the energy released in th…
HOLMES - The Electron Capture Decay of 163Ho to Measure the Electron Neutrino Mass with sub-eV sensitivity
B. Alpert, M. Balata, D. Bennett +35
The European Research Council has recently funded HOLMES, a new experiment to directly measure the neutrino mass. HOLMES will perform a calorimetric measurement of the energy relea…
Working principle and demonstrator of microwave-multiplexing for the HOLMES experiment microcalorimeters
D. T. Becker, D. A. Bennett, M. Biasotti +21
The determination of the neutrino mass is an open issue in modern particle physics and astrophysics. The direct mass measurement is the only theory-unrelated experimental tool capa…
Upgrade of compact neutron spectrometer for high flux environments
M. Osipenko, A. Bellucci, V. Ceriale +9
In this paper a new version of Li6-based neutron spectrometer for high flux environments is described. The new spectrometer was built with commercial single crystal Chemical Vapour…
Calibration of the compact neutron spectrometer at PTB
M. Osipenko, V. Ceriale, G. Gariano +6
In the present article we describe the calibration measurements of the compact neutron spectrometer at certified PTB neutron source. The spectrometer is based on two diamond detect…
