An electron antineutrino mass has been measured in tritium beta-decay in the "Troitsk nu-mass" experiment. The setup consists of a windowless gaseous tritium source and an electrostatic electron spectrometer. The whole data set acquired…

Taking into account mixings among neutrino states, the end of the energy spectrum of the electron in the tritium beta decay is investigated. It is shown that for real energy resolutions of a spectrometer, $ \Delta E > 0.08$ eV, the…
