Abstract

The absolute mass scale of the neutrino is one of the most fundamental open questions in contemporary particle physics, with implications from particle theory to cosmology. Through precision measurements of beta-decay kinematics, the KATRIN experiment probes the neutrino mass with unprecedented sensitivity.

期刊介绍： Europhysics News is the magazine of the European physics community. It is owned by the European Physical Society and produced in cooperation with EDP Sciences. It is distributed to all our Individual Members and many institutional subscribers. Most European national societies receive EPN for further distribution. The total circulation is currently about 25000 copies per issue. It aims to provide physicists at all levels, ranging from post graduate students to senior managers working in both industry and the public sector, with a balanced overview of the scientific and organizational aspects of physics and related disciplines at a European level.
