High-resolution spectroscopy of gaseous Kr conversion electrons with the KATRIN experiment
K. Altenmüller, M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek +124
In this work, we present the first spectroscopic measurements of conversion electrons originating from the decay of metastable gaseous Kr with the Karlsruhe Tritium…
Gamma-induced background in the KATRIN main spectrometer
K. Altenmüller, M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek +123
The KATRIN experiment aims to measure the effective electron antineutrino mass with a sensitivity of 0.2 eV/c using a gaseous tritium source combined with th…
The KATRIN Superconducting Magnets: Overview and First Performance Results
M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek, M. Beck +121
The KATRIN experiment aims for the determination of the effective electron anti-neutrino mass from the tritium beta-decay with an unprecedented sub-eV sensitivity. The strong magne…
Reduction of stored-particle background by a magnetic pulse method at the KATRIN experiment
KATRIN Collaboration, M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek +127
The KATRIN experiment aims to determine the effective electron neutrino mass with a sensitivity of (90\% C.L.) by precision measurement of the shape of the t…
Muon-induced background in the KATRIN main spectrometer
K. Altenmüller, M. Arenz, W. -J. Baek +131
The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment aims to make a model-independent determination of the effective electron antineutrino mass with a sensitivity of 0.2 eV/c.…
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-…
