Past and current direct neutrino mass experiments set limits on the so-called effective neutrino mass, which is an incoherent sum of neutrino masses and lepton mixing matrix elements. The electron energy spectrum which neglects the relativistic and nuclear recoil effects is often assumed. Alternative definitions of effective masses exist, and an exact relativistic spectrum is calculable. We quantitatively compare the validity of those different approximations as function of energy resolution and exposure in view of tritium beta decays in the KATRIN, Project 8 and PTOLEMY experiments. Furthermore, adopting the Bayesian approach, we present the posterior distributions of the effective neutrino mass by including current experimental information from neutrino oscillations, beta decay, neutrinoless double-beta decay and cosmological observations. Both linear and logarithmic priors for the smallest neutrino mass are assumed.
The paper reviews recent experiments on tritium beta spectroscopy searching for the absolute value of the electron neutrino mass $m( u_e)$. By use of dedicated electrostatic filters with high acceptance and resolution, the uncertainty on the observab
In the near future, the neutrinoless double-beta ($0 ubetabeta$) decay experiments will hopefully reach the sensitivity of a few ${rm meV}$ to the effective neutrino mass $|m^{}_{betabeta}|$. In this paper, we tentatively examine the sensitivity of f
The interference of charge-changing interactions, weaker than the V-A Standard Model (SM) interaction and having a different Lorentz structure, with that SM interaction, can, in principle, produce effects near the end point of the Tritium beta decay
We perform a statistical analysis with the prospective results of future experiments on neutrino-less double beta decay, direct searches for neutrino mass (KATRIN) and cosmological observations. Realistic errors are used and the nuclear matrix elemen
We analyze the impact of a measurement, or of an improved bound, on theta_{13} for the determination of the effective neutrino mass in neutrino-less double beta decay and cosmology. In particular, we discuss how an improved limit on (or a specific va
