KATRIN
KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino Experiment) is an experiment to measure the mass of the electron neutrino with sub-eV precision by examining the spectrum of electrons emitted from the beta decay of tritium. As of 2006, the apparatus is under construction in Karlsruhe, Germany, and is expected to begin collecting data in 2009.
