Characterization of Silicon Drift Detectors with Electrons for the TRISTAN Project
S. Mertens, T. Brunst, M. Korzeczek +30
Sterile neutrinos are a minimal extension of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. A promising model-independent way to search for sterile neutrinos is via high-precision beta sp…
Characterization of a Silicon Drift Detector for High-Resolution Electron Spectroscopy
Matteo Gugiatti, Matteo Biassoni, Marco Carminati +8
Silicon Drift Detectors, widely employed in high-resolution and high-rate X-ray applications, are considered here with interest also for electron detection. The accurate measuremen…
Hunting keV sterile neutrinos with KATRIN: building the first TRISTAN module
Thibaut Houdy, Antonio Alborini, Konrad Altenmüller +21
The KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino) experiment investigates the energetic endpoint of the tritium beta-decay spectrum to determine the effective mass of the electron anti-neutr…
Electron spectrometry with SDDs: a GEANT4 based method for detector response reconstruction
Matteo Biassoni, Matteo Gugiatti, Silvia Capelli +8
Electron spectrometry is traditionally challenging due to the difficulty of correctly reconstructing the original energy of the detected electrons. Silicon Drift Detectors, extensi…
