Description
The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment probes the effective electron anti-neutrino mass by precisely measuring the tritium beta-decay spectrum close to its kinematic endpoint.
A world-leading upper limit of $0.8 \,$eV$\,$c$^{-2}$ (90$\,$\% CL) has been set with the first two measurement campaigns.
Subsequent improvements in operational conditions and a substantial increase in statistics allow us to expand this reach.
This talk features the latest KATRIN results and provides insight into the neural network approach used to perform the computationally challenging analysis. Moreover, a short outlook on the upcoming Bayesian analysis will be given.
