Oscillations: • Kinematics in weak decays: • 0n double beta decay: ?
solar Kamland Kamland + solar
Global fit to all existing data atmospheric, reactors (SBL) solar accelerators accelerators reactors (LBL)
To improve on T120n and <mn>: need large source mass lower background, better event signature
beta decay: For more information: Commins and Bucksbaum, Weak interaction of leptons and quarks
Integral electrostatic spectrometer
Mainz frozen T2 source, DE=4.8 eV Troitsk gaseous T2 source, DE=3.5 eV Reported anomaly most likely experimental artifact
Katrin (Karlsruhe) 23 m in final version
T2 injection (27 K) 10 m start data taking 2010
heat sink ( 8 mK) phonons i • Wide choice of materials • Good energy resolution crystal Stopping particle (ionizing or non ionizing) Cryogenic detectors (bolometers) Thermistor R(T) measure heat pulse
187Re 187Os + e- + ne E0=2.5 keV, 43 Gyr, abundance 62.8 % mn < 15 eV at 90 % CL (complication: ‘’ forbidden ’’ transition) Milano: 10 AgReO4 crystals (250-300 mg each) as cryogenic bolometers (T=10 mK) DE(FWHM)=28 eV at 2.5 keV
Next version: MARE (Microcalorimeter Array for a Rhenium Experiment) • 300calorimeters of a few 100 mg, with DE=10-20 eV • in progress, start data taking in 2010 for a few years • R&D for new thermistors • goal 5x104 calorimeters with DE< 5 eV • Like KATRIN, but with completely different systematics!
