This work presents an upper bound on the neutrino mass using the emission of \(\nu_e\) from the neutronization burst of a core collapsing supernova at 10~kpc of distance and a progenitor star of 15~M\(_\odot\). The calculations were done considering a 34 kton Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber sim...
