In this paper, we reexamine one of the most promising candidates for determining the neutrino mass scale -- the unique first forbidden $\beta$ transition from $^{187}$Re($5/2^+$) to $^{187}$Os($1/2^-$). With the lowest-known ground-state to…
The shape of the beta decay energy distribution is sensitive to the mass of the electron neutrino. Attempts to measure the endpoint shape of tritium decay have so far seen no distortion from the zero-mass form, thus placing an upper limit…
We focus on the implications of the oscillations for the shape of nuclear beta-spectrum (=direct search for nu mass). This is of interest because of the existing bound, m_(nu_e)<2.2 eV, that could improve by one order of magnitude with…
