Measuring the neutrino mass is one of the most compelling issues in particle physics. HOLMES is an experiment for a direct measurement of the neutrino mass. HOLMES will perform a precise measurement of the end point of the electron capture decay spectrum of (Formula presented.) in order to extract information on the neutrino mass with a...

HOLMES is an experiment aimed at directly measuring the neutrino mass through the calorimetric measurement of the 163 Ho electron capture decay. The final goal of the project consists in providing a sensitivity on the neutrino mass below 2 eV; in addition, it will establish the potential of this approach to achieve a sub-eV sensitivity. The...

The HOLMES project aims to directly measure the [Formula presented] mass down to the eV scale using the electron capture decay (EC) of 163 Ho. It will perform a precise calorimetric measurement of the end-point of the Ho energy spectrum looking for the deformation caused by a finite [Formula presented] mass. The choice of 163 Ho as source is...
