A novel detector system for KATRIN to search for keV-scale sterile neutrinos
Susanne Mertens, Antonio Alborini, Konrad Altenmüller +19
Sterile neutrinos are a minimal extension of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. If their mass is in the kilo-electron-volt regime, they are viable dark matter candidates. One…
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…
Final results on Se double beta decay to the ground state of Kr from the NEMO-3 experiment
3 Collaboration, R. Arnold, C. Augier +96
Using data from the NEMO-3 experiment, we have measured the two-neutrino double beta decay () half-life of Se as $T_{1/2}^{2ν} = \left[ 9.39 \pm 0.17\,\left(\mbox{stat…
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-…
