What is the mass of a neutrino at rest? A team led by the department of Klaus Blaum, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg (MIPK), with the participation of Christoph Düllmann's working group at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt, and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz (HIM) has now made an important contribution to the “weighing” of neutrinos as part of the international ECHo collaboration. ...
