Investigations of Charge Collection and Signal Timing in a multi-pixel Silicon Drift Detector

Christian Forstner, Korbinian Urban, Marco Carminati +7

Sterile neutrinos are a minimal extension of the Standard Model of particle physics and a promising candidate for dark matter if their mass is in the keV-range. The Karlsruhe Triti…

Direct neutrino-mass measurement based on 259 days of KATRIN data

M. Aker, D. Batzler, A. Beglarian +146

The fact that neutrinos carry a non-vanishing rest mass is evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model of elementary particles. Their absolute mass bears important relevance from…
