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…

Bound on 3+1 active-sterile neutrino mixing from the first four-week science run of KATRIN

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

We report on the light sterile neutrino search from the first four-week science run of the KATRIN experiment in~2019. Beta-decay electrons from a high-purity gaseous molecular trit…

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…

First operation of the KATRIN experiment with tritium

M. Aker, K. Altenmüller, M. Arenz +168

The determination of the neutrino mass is one of the major challenges in astroparticle physics today. Direct neutrino mass experiments, based solely on the kinematics of beta-decay…
