  • KATRIN has set a new global benchmark in the field of direct neutrino mass measurements.
  • Neutrinos are incredibly abundant and pass through ordinary matter virtually undetected.
  • The KATRIN experiment focuses on studying the beta decay of tritium, a radio-active isotope of hydrogen.
  • During the test, the upper limit of the neutrino mass has been reduced to 0.45 electron volts per c², about 8 x 10³ kilogrammes.
  • KATRIN stands for Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino experiment, and it is located in Karlsruhe, Germany.
