In just the first 259 days of data collection, KATRIN, a beta-decay-based detector in Germany, has set the smallest upper ...

New data establish an upper limit of 0.45 eV/c2 (equivalent to 8 x 10-37 kilograms) for the neutrino mass. KATRIN measures neutrino mass in the laboratory using a model-independent method.

Neutrinos, the mysterious and nearly massless particles that barely interact with anything, are revealing new secrets through the KATRIN experiment. Using tritium decay and advanced spectrometry, ...
