Improved Upper Limit on the Neutrino Mass from a Direct Kinematic Method by KATRIN.

We report on the neutrino mass measurement result from the first four-week science run of the Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino experiment KATRIN in spring 2019. Beta-decay electrons from a high-purity gaseous molecular tritium source are energy analyzed by a high-resolution MAC-E filter. A fit of the integrated electron spectrum over a narrow interval around the kinematic end point at 18.

Low-dose-rate ionizing irradiation for inhibition of secondary cataract formation.

Introduction: Secondary cataract formation limits visual function after cataract surgery. Various experimental methods utilizing the pharmacologic inhibition of lens epithelial cell proliferation have been proposed. However, diffusion into the anterior chamber may lead to damage of corneal endothelial cells.
