Description
KATRIN is the world-leading experiment for direct measurement of the neutrino mass. At the end of the current experimental phase a sensitivity of 0.3 eV/c2 will be reached. Studies show, that an upgrade of the experimental setup is possible to drastical increase the resolution. The combination of an atomic Tritium source and a superconduction quantum sensor array the neutrino will enable the measurement of the mass spectrum. The presentation will introduce concept and challenge of KATRIN++, a central activity carried by the Helmholz programs MU and MT in the upcoming funding period.
