  1. Revelationsoftheneutrino: Massoftheneutrino (KATRIN) Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino

  2. Outline Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino  Massoftheneutrino A shortbiography Properties Massoftheneutrino Tritium beta-decay

  3. A shortbiography Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino 1930: Processof Beta Decay (nucleus + electron) did not matchwithconservationofenergy, momentumand angular momentum. Wolfgang Pauli postulated a newparticletodescribetheseproblems andcalledit „Neutron“. 1932: James Chadwick discoveredthe neutral massive particel in nucleisand also namedit „Neutron“. 1933: Enrico Fermi namedthefirst „Neutron“ „Neutrino“. Thisconfusion was onlyabouttheelectronneutrino !!! Discovery: NeutrinoTheoreticalExperimental Electron 1930 (Wolfgang Pauli) 1956 (C.Cowan, F.Reines) Myon Late 1940s 1962 (L.Lederman, M.Schwartz,J.Steinberger) Taon Mid 1970s 2000 (DONUT Collaboration)

  4. Properties Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino - Weak (andgravitational) interactiononly 40 000 000 000 (4*10^10) neutrinosareflyingthroughyour thumbnaileverysecond! - Neutrino Oscillation Neutrinos canchangetheirflavour! http://www.hk-phy.org/articles/neutrino/neutrino_joke_e.jpg http://www.laguna-science.eu/images/stories/oscill.gif

  5. Massoftheneutrino Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino Standard Modell: m=0 Neutrino Oscillation nonzeromass How do youmeasurethemassof such a particle? The answer ist the Beta-decay (of Tritium)! http://www-ik.fzk.de/tritium/overview/zerfall-transparent-10.gif

  7. Measuringtheelectronenergy Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino : β-spectrum: http://vali.physics.carleton.ca/~watson/Physics/Gifs/Modern_Physics/Beta_decay_spectrum.gif

  9. Kurie-Plot Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino K(E) E K(E) K(E) E E

  10. Why Tritium? Christoph Wuttke, Mass of the Neutrino - Small decayenergy (18.57 keV)  easiertodetectslowelectrons - Long Half-lifeof 12.3 years - Becauseofsmallenergy highvariation in Kurie-Plot - Tritium Fermifunction nodistortionofβ-spectrum
