Electron time-of-flight: a new tool in β-decay spectroscopy

We show that electron time-of-flight can be a useful tool in β-decay spectroscopy, even in the energy range up to 700 keV relevant for neutron β decay. As a first application, we use electron time-of-flight measurements for the precise calibration of an electron detector.
