Stochastic Heating by ECR as a Novel Means of Background Reduction in the KATRIN Spectrometers

S. Mertens, A. Beglarian, L. Bornschein +11

The primary objective of the KATRIN experiment is to probe the absolute neutrino mass scale with a sensitivity of 200 meV (90% C.L.) by precision spectroscopy of tritium beta-decay…
