The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment is designed to determine the effective mass of the electron-antineutrino with a target sensitivity of 200 meV/c2 (90% C.L.) in a direct and model- independent way. KATRIN uses a strong gaseous windowless Tritium source associated with a large high-resolution spectrometer (MAC-E filter) to analyze precisely the electron energies from the...

The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment aims to search for the effective electron antineutrino mass
with a sensitivity of 0.2 eV/c$^2$ (90 % C.L.) from the shape of the tritium $\beta$-decay electron energy spectrum.
The first measurement campaign in KATRIN dedicated to the neutrino mass took place in Spring 2019 with about 25 %...

The goal of the Project 8 experiment is to measure the absolute neutrino mass using tritium beta decays and a new spectroscopic technique, Cyclotron Radiation Emission Spectroscopy (CRES). The first phase of Project 8 demonstrated that CRES could be used to detect single-electron cyclotron radiation and perform precision electron spectroscopy. We are in Phase II of the experiment, performing a...

The goal of the Electron Capture in $^{163}$Ho (ECHo) experiment is the determination of the electron neutrino mass by the analysis of the electron capture spectrum of $^{163}$Ho. The detector technology is based on metallic magnetic calorimeters operated at a temperature of about 10 mK in a reduced background environment. For the first phase of the experiment, ECHo-1k, the detector production...

The Cosmic Neutrino Background is a solid prediction of the Standard Model of Cosmology and Particle Physics. There is plenty of indirect evidence for its existence but so far it escaped direct detection. I will explain the difficulties in such an endeavor and present some recent ideas and proposals for it. Interestingly, some of the proposals could act simultaneously as a dark matter experiment.
