KATRIN Sensitivity to keV Sterile Neutrinos with the TRISTAN Detector Upgrade

H. Acharya, M. Aker, D. Batzler +127

Sterile neutrinos in the keV mass range are a well-motivated extension of the Standard Model and viable dark matter candidates. Their existence can be probed in laboratory experime…

Development of a Silicon Drift Detector Array to Search for keV-scale Sterile Neutrinos with the KATRIN Experiment

Daniel Siegmann, Frank Edzards, Christina Bruch +25

Sterile neutrinos in the keV mass range present a viable candidate for dark matter. They can be detected through single decay, where they cause small spectral distortions. The…

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…

Analysis methods for the first KATRIN neutrino-mass measurement

M. Aker, K. Altenmüller, A. Beglarian +126

We report on the data set, data handling, and detailed analysis techniques of the first neutrino-mass measurement by the Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment, which probe…

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…
