SUMMARY:[Special] Speaker: Alec Lindman (University of Mainz) Title: Atomic tritium for next-generation neutrino mass measurement with Project 8
DESCRIPTION:SPECIAL INPA SEMINAR \nDate:  Thursday\, February 15\, 2024 \nTime: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room–50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Alec Lindman (University of Mainz) \nTitle: Atomic tritium for next-generation neutrino mass measurement with Project 8 \nAbstract: Neutrinos provide a window to physics beyond the Standard Model through their nonzero mass\, but new technology is required to push below current limits. Project 8 is a next-generation direct neutrino mass experiment with a sensitivity of 40 meV/c^2. We have established a new frequency-based technique\, cyclotron radiation emission spectroscopy (CRES)\, to make precise\, differential measurements of the endpoint region of the tritium beta-decay spectrum. Atomic tritium will improve Project 8’s sensitivity by 10 to 30 times over a similar molecular experiment. This talk will focus on the development of the new technologies to enable the atomic tritium experiment. I will outline Project 8’s atomic architecture\, which includes large magnetic traps (~ 50 m^3) that store atoms at ~ 1 mK to benefit from CRES’s volume scaling\, a chain of atom cooling and transport elements to maintain the intended density in the trap\, and a tritium-compatible atom source that can provide the necessary flux of 10^19 atoms/s. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011\n\nPasscode: 247722 \n
