Digital Pulseshape Analysis by Neural Networks for the Heidelberg-Moscow-Double-Beta-Decay-Experiment
نویسنده
چکیده
The Heidelberg-Moscow Experiment is presently the most sensitive experiment looking for neutrinoless double-beta decay. Recently the already very low background has been lowered by means of a Digital Pulseshape Analysis using a one parameter cut to distinguish between pointlike events and multiple scattered events. To use all the information contained in a recorded digital pulse, we developed a new technique for event recognition based on neural networks.

Support of Evidence for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay
Indirect support for the evidence of neutrinoless double beta decay reported recently, is obtained by analysis of other Ge double beta experiments, which yield independent information on the background in the region of Qββ . Some statistical features as well as background simulations with GEANT 4 of the HEIDELBERG-MOSCOW experiment are discussed which disprove recent criticism. Spokesman of HEI...

The background in the region of the Q-value for neutrinoless double beta decay of Ge has been investigated by different methods: Simulation with GEANT 4 of the HEIDELBERG-MOSCOW experiment, analysis of other Ge double beta experiments. Statistical features of the analysis at very low count rates are discussed.
متن کاملOne Year of Evidence for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay
The present experimental status in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay is reviewed, with emphasis on the first indication for neutrinoless double beta decay found in the HEIDELBERG-MOSCOW experiment, giving first evidence for lepton number violation and a Majorana nature of the neutrinos. Future perspectives of the field are briefly outlined.
متن کاملSearch for Double Beta Decay with Hpge Detectors at the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory
Neutrinoless double-beta (0νββ) decay is practically the only way to establish the Majorana nature of the neutrino mass and its decay rate provides a probe of an effective neutrino mass. Double beta experiments are long-running underground experiments with specific challenges concerning the background reduction and the long term stability. These problems are addressed in this work for the Heide...
متن کاملStatus of Evidence for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay, and the Future: Genius and Genius-tf
The first evidence for neutrinoless double beta decay has been observed in the HEIDELBERGMOSCOW experiment, which is the most sensitive double beta decay experiment since ten years. This is the first evidence for lepton number violation and proves that the neutrino is a Majorana particle. It further shows that neutrino masses are degenerate. In addition it puts several stringent constraints on ...
