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…
Constraints on Neutrino Lifetime from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
SNO Collaboration, B. Aharmim, S. N. Ahmed +128
The long baseline between the Earth and the Sun makes solar neutrinos an excellent test beam for exploring possible neutrino decay. The signature of such decay would be an energy-d…
Tests of Lorentz invariance at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
SNO Collaboration, B. Aharmim, S. N. Ahmed +131
Experimental tests of Lorentz symmetry in systems of all types are critical for ensuring that the basic assumptions of physics are well-founded. Data from all phases of the Sudbury…
-Decay Spectrum, Response Function and Statistical Model for Neutrino Mass Measurements with the KATRIN Experiment
M. Kleesiek, J. Behrens, G. Drexlin +10
The objective of the Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment is to determine the effective electron neutrino mass with an unprecedented sensitivity of $0.2\,…
