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…

Measurement of the electric potential and the magnetic field in the shifted analysing plane of the KATRIN experiment

M. Aker, D. Batzler, A. Beglarian +135

The projected sensitivity of the effective electron neutrino-mass measurement with the KATRIN experiment is below 0.3 eV (90 % CL) after five years of data acquisition. The sensiti…

Direct neutrino-mass measurement based on 259 days of KATRIN data

M. Aker, D. Batzler, A. Beglarian +146

The fact that neutrinos carry a non-vanishing rest mass is evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model of elementary particles. Their absolute mass bears important relevance from…

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…
