In this paper we discuss the perspectives for a new generation of neutrino mass experiments using thermal detectors to reach interesting sensitivities before and after the KATRIN experiment. By scaling the performance of the present Milano neutrino mass experiment with Monte Carlo simulations, we show how a new experiment can validate the present limit of feweV set by spectrometers before the KATRIN experiment starts. We also show howsuch a result can be used to design a very large thermal detector experiment to reach sensitivities beyond the KATRIN expected one.

Abstract
In this paper we discuss the perspectives for a new generation of neutrino mass experiments using thermal detectors to reach interesting sensitivities before and after the KATRIN experiment. By scaling the performance of the present Milano neutrino mass experiment with Monte Carlo simulations, we show how a new experiment can validate the present limit of feweV set by spectrometers before the KATRIN experiment starts. We also show howsuch a result can be used to design a very large thermal detector experiment to reach sensitivities beyond the KATRIN expected one.
