Accurate Calibration of Raman Systems

Part of the book series: Springer Theses ((Springer Theses))

  • 781 Accesses

Abstract

Every future calibration effort is thus reduced to the measurement of the Raman system’s spectral sensitivity, which revealed itself as a rather fast and uncomplicated procedure. The achieved calibration uncertainty 2–\(3\,\%\) is well within the aforementioned uncertainty budget. This is an important finding for KATRIN’s aim to measure the neutrino mass at design sensitivity.
