A large, 64-pixel PIN-diode detector for low-energy beta-electrons

The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino Experiment (KATRIN) neutrino mass experiment is based on a precise energy measurement ( Δ E / E = 5 × 1 0 - 5 ) of electrons emerging from tritium beta decay ( E max = 18.6 keV ) . This is done by a large electrostatic retarding spectrometer, which is followed by an el...
