The Design, Construction, and Commissioning of the KATRIN Experiment
M. Aker, K. Altenmüller, J. F. Amsbaugh +226
The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment, which aims to make a direct and model-independent determination of the absolute neutrino mass scale, is a complex experiment wit…
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…
Suppression of Penning discharges between the KATRIN spectrometers
M. Aker, K. Altenmüller, A. Beglarian +151
The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino experiment (KATRIN) aims to determine the effective electron (anti)neutrino mass with a sensitivity of (90 C.L.) by precise…
High-resolution spectroscopy of gaseous Kr conversion electrons with the KATRIN experiment
K. Altenmüller, M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek +124
In this work, we present the first spectroscopic measurements of conversion electrons originating from the decay of metastable gaseous Kr with the Karlsruhe Tritium…
A novel detector system for KATRIN to search for keV-scale sterile neutrinos
Susanne Mertens, Antonio Alborini, Konrad Altenmüller +19
Sterile neutrinos are a minimal extension of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. If their mass is in the kilo-electron-volt regime, they are viable dark matter candidates. One…
Reduction of stored-particle background by a magnetic pulse method at the KATRIN experiment
KATRIN Collaboration, M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek +127
The KATRIN experiment aims to determine the effective electron neutrino mass with a sensitivity of (90\% C.L.) by precision measurement of the shape of the t…
Muon-induced background in the KATRIN main spectrometer
K. Altenmüller, M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek +131
The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment aims to make a model-independent determination of the effective electron antineutrino mass with a sensitivity of 0.2 eV/c.…
Impact of ADC non-linearities on the sensitivity to sterile keV neutrinos with a KATRIN-like experiment
K. Dolde, S. Mertens, D. Radford +5
ADC non-linearities are a major systematic effect in the search for keV-scale sterile neutrinos with tritium -decay experiments like KATRIN. They can significantly distort the s…
Ultra-stable implanted 83Rb/83mKr electron sources for the energy scale monitoring in the KATRIN experiment
M. Zbořil, S. Bauer, M. Beck +13
The KATRIN experiment aims at the direct model-independent determination of the average electron neutrino mass via the measurement of the endpoint region of the tritium beta decay…
