Sensitivity of neutrino mass experiments to the cosmic neutrino background

The KATRIN neutrino experiment is a next-generation tritium beta decay experiment aimed at measuring the mass of the electron neutrino to better than 200 meV at 90% C.L. Because of its intense tritium source, KATRIN can also serve as a possible target for the process of neutrino capture, νe+[supersc...
