A precision 32 keV angular-selective photoelectron source for calibration measurements at the KATRIN experiment
Sonja Schneidewind, Rudolf Sack, Fabian Block +11
The paper describes an upgraded monoenergetic, angular‑selective photoelectron source delivering up to 32 keV electrons for calibrating the KATRIN neutrino‑mass experiment.
An active Transverse Energy Filter based on microstructured Si-PIN diodes with an angular-selective detection efficiency
S. Schneidewind, K. Gauda, K. Blümer +10
Si-PIN detectors can be microstructured to achieve angular-selective particle detection capabilities, which we call active Transverse Energy Filter (aTEF). The microstructuring con…
NTL-amplified cryogenic light detectors with optically transparent electrodes
Matteo Biassoni, Andrea Nava, Oscar Azzolini +21
The Neganov-Trofimov-Luke (NTL) effect is used by experiments based on cryogenic detectors to boost the sensitivity of light-sensitive devices down to a few optical photons. In thi…
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…
Sterile-neutrino search based on 259 days of KATRIN data
Himal Acharya, Max Aker, Dominic Batzler +132
Neutrinos are the most abundant fundamental matter particles in the Universe and play a crucial role in particle physics and cosmology. Neutrino oscillation, discovered about 25 ye…
Measurement of the inhomogeneity of the KATRIN tritium source electric potential by high-resolution spectroscopy of conversion electrons from Kr
H. Acharya, M. Aker, D. Batzler +130
Precision spectroscopy of the electron spectrum of the tritium -decay near the kinematic endpoint is a direct method to determine the effective electron antineutrino mass. The…
