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…
A precision 32 keV angular-selective photoelectron source for calibration measurements at the KATRIN experiment
Sonja Schneidewind, Rudolf Sack, Fabian Block +11
The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment measures the neutrino mass from a precise measurement of the endpoint region of the kinematic tritium beta-decay spectrum by usin…
Design of a mobile neutron spectrometer for the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS)
Melih Solmaz, Klaus Eitel, Kathrin Valerius +7
Environmental neutrons are a source of background for rare event searches (e.g., dark matter direct detection and neutrinoless double beta decay experiments) taking place in deep u…
Search for keV-scale Sterile Neutrinos with first KATRIN Data
M. Aker, D. Batzler, A. Beglarian +128
In this work we present a keV-scale sterile-neutrino search with the first tritium data of the KATRIN experiment, acquired in the commissioning run in 2018. KATRIN performs a spect…
First direct neutrino-mass measurement with sub-eV sensitivity
M. Aker, A. Beglarian, J. Behrens +125
We report the results of the second measurement campaign of the Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment. KATRIN probes the effective electron anti-neutrino mass, , via…
A novel ppm-precise absolute calibration method for precision high-voltage dividers
O. Rest, D. Winzen, S. Bauer +5
The most common method to measure direct current high voltage (HV) down to the ppm-level is to use resistive high-voltage dividers. Such devices scale the HV into a range where it…
Dead layer on silicon p-i-n diode charged-particle detectors
B. L. Wall, J. F. Amsbaugh, A. Beglarian +25
Semiconductor detectors in general have a dead layer at their surfaces that is either a result of natural or induced passivation, or is formed during the process of making a contac…
