Measurements with a TRISTAN prototype detector system at the "Troitsk nu-mass" experiment in integral and differential mode
Tim Brunst, Thibaut Houdy, Susanne Mertens +22
Sterile neutrinos emerge in minimal extensions of the Standard Model which can solve a number of open questions in astroparticle physics. For example, sterile neutrinos in the keV-…
Calibration of high voltages at the ppm level by the difference of Kr conversion electron lines at the KATRIN experiment
M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek, M. Beck +124
The neutrino mass experiment KATRIN requires a stability of 3 ppm for the retarding potential at -18.6 kV of the main spectrometer. To monitor the stability, two custom-made ultra-…
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…
Sensitivity of Next-Generation Tritium Beta-Decay Experiments for keV-Scale Sterile Neutrinos
S. Mertens, T. Lasserre, S. Groh +6
We investigate the sensitivity of tritium -decay experiments for keV-scale sterile neutrinos. Relic sterile neutrinos in the keV mass range can contribute both to the cold and w…
SOX: Short distance neutrino Oscillations with BoreXino
Borexino Collaboration
The very low radioactive background of the Borexino detector, its large size, and the well proved capability to detect both low energy neutrino and anti-neutrino make an ideal case…
