The KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino) experiment investigates the energetic endpoint of the tritium beta-decay spectrum to determine the effective mass of the electron anti-neutrino.
The TRISTAN project aims at detecting a keV-sterile neutrino signature by measuring the entire tritium beta-decay spectrum with an upgraded KATRIN system. One of the greatest challenges is to handle the high...

The KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino) experiment investigates the energetic endpoint of the tritium beta-decay spectrum to determine the effective mass of the electron anti-neutrino with a sensitivity of 200 meV (90% C.L.) after an effective data taking time of three years.
The TRISTAN (tritium beta-decay to search for sterile neutrinos) group aims at detecting a sterile neutrino signature...

Oral presentation in parallel session
Light sterile neutrinos with a mass around 1 eV have been studied for many years as a possible explanation of the so called short-baseline neutrino oscillation anomalies. Recently, several neutrino oscillation experiments reported preferences for non-zero values of the mixing angles and squared mass differences for active-sterile mixing, which however are not always in agreement. I will review...

The Standard Cosmological Model predicts the existence of relic neutrinos, which are indirectly probed through the effective number of relativistic species in the early Universe. In addition, from neutrino flavour oscillations we know that at least two of them have a non-zero mass. Since the expansion of the Universe has diluted the energy of relic neutrinos, those that are massive are also...

The PTOLEMY project aims to develop a scalable design for a Cosmic
Neutrino Background (CNB) detector, the first of its kind and the only
one conceived that can look directly at the image of the Universe encoded
in neutrino
background produced in the first second after the Big Bang.
The scope of the
work for the next three years is to complete the conceptual design of this
detector
and...
