Katrin Rack
Katrin Rack (geb. 1986) studierte Geschichte und Deutsch als Fremdsprache im Rahmen eines deutsch-französischen Studiengangs zwischen der Universität Bielefeld und der Université Paris Diderot – Paris 7. In ihrer Masterarbeit befasste sie sich mit Deutschen in Paris zwischen 1850 und 1914 und der Frage, inwieweit es Diskurse über die Stiftung einer gemeinsamen Identität gab. Momentan arbeitet sie an einem Promotionsprojekt über deutsche Diplomaten in Paris zwischen 1815 und 1870/71, das an de..

Ein gesamtdeutscher Diplomat in Paris? Der gescheiterte Versuch 1848 (Gastbeitrag Katrin Rack)
Im August 1848 reiste Friedrich von Raumer mit dem Auftrag von Frankfurt nach Paris, dort als diplomatischer Vertreter der neuen Provisorischen Zentralgewalt von der französischen Regierung anerkannt zu werden. Sein Aufenthalt in Paris war allerdings kurz und erfolglos, denn bereits in den letzten Tagen des Jahres 1848 trat er die Rückreise an. Warum lohnt es sich trotzdem, die wenigen Monate zu betrachten, in denen Raumer vergeblich versuchte, von französischer Seite diplomatische Anerkennun..

High-resolution spectroscopy of gaseous 83m Kr conversion electrons with the KATRIN experiment
© 2020 The Author(s). Published by IOP Publishing Ltd. In this work, we present the first spectroscopic measurements of conversion electrons originating from the decay of metastable gaseous 83mKr with the Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment. The obtained results represent one of the major commissioning milestones for the subsequent direct neutrino mass measurement with KATRIN. The successful campaign demonstrates the functionalities of the KATRIN beamline. Precise measurement of the narrow K-32, L3-32, and N2,3-32 conversion electron lines allowed to verify the eV-scale energy resolution of the KATRIN main spectrometer necessary for competitive measurement of the absolute neutrino mass scale

KATRIN: Status and Prospects for the Neutrino Mass and Beyond
The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment is designed to measure a
high-precision integral spectrum of the endpoint region of T2 beta decay, with
the primary goal of probing the absolute mass scale of the neutrino. After a
first tritium commissioning campaign in 2018, the experiment has been regularly
running since 2019, and in its first two measurement campaigns has already
achieved a sub-eV sensitivity. After 1000 days of data-taking, KATRIN's design
sensitivity is 0.2 eV at the 90% confidence level. In this white paper we
describe the current status of KATRIN; explore prospects for measuring the
neutrino mass and other physics observables, including sterile neutrinos and
other beyond-Standard-Model hypotheses; and discuss research-and-development
projects that may further improve the KATRIN sensitivity.Comment: Contribution to Snowmass 2021. 70 pages excluding references; 35

The haunted public sphere: women and the power of emotion in the works of Alexander Kluge and the films of the Berlin School
My dissertation sheds light on the German filmmaker and author Alexander Kluge and his ideas on filmmaking as they evolved out of his conception of the public versus the private spheres since the early 1960s. It was Kluge’s contention that personal experiences of war and violence could not be expressed publicly in the postwar Federal Republic, causing a rift between the two realms and a haunting presence of trauma within individuals and society as a whole. What Kluge, in cooperation with Oskar Negt, called “alternative public sphere” in Public Sphere and Experience (1972) and History and Obstinacy (1981) is closely linked to Woman and so-called “proletarian” forces countering instrumental reason and the bourgeois cultural matrix. Analyzing four crucial films from Kluge’s creative work, I outline the increasingly allegorical role of his concept of “female mode of production,” which constitutes Kluge’s aesthetics and thematic focus. How the ideas of “alternative public sphere” and “female mode of production” are linked to the cinema and Kluge’s theory of film is the focus of another chapter that scrutinizes Kluge’s recent literary compilation Cinema Stories (2007). Finally, I read a selection of contemporary German films considered the new filmic avant-garde through the lens of Kluge’s approach to film, to the “female mode of production,” and to the public sphere. This allows me to compare the ethics, the formal and political attitude of the so-called Berlin School directors to the vanguard movement of Young German Film in the sixties and early seventies. I conclude that the filmic Autoren today deal with a similar problem as Alexander Kluge has done throughout his career, namely the dissociation of personal, lived experience from public representation. They also employ formal and thematic strategies that can be related to the thoughts behind the Oberhausen generation of German filmmakers. While the generation of the leftist student movements sought public recognition of the atrocities committed under National Socialism, the Berlin School directors deal with mediated experience in times of media and finance corporatism as virtual realities threaten to take over the empiric world.Ph.
