Abstract The possibility that neutrinos may be their own antiparticles, unique among the known fundamental particles, arises from symmetric theory of fermions proposed by Ettore Majorana in 1937 1 . Given profound consequences such neutrinos, which is a potential explanation for matter–antimatter asymmetry universe via leptogenesis 2 , nature commands intense experimental scrutiny globally; one primary probes neutrinoless double beta (0 νββ ) decay. Here we show results search 0 decay 130...

We measured two-neutrino double beta decay of $^{130}\mathrm{Te}$ using an exposure 300.7 kg yr accumulated with the CUORE detector. Using a Bayesian analysis to fit simulated spectra experimental data, it was possible disentangle all major background sources and precisely measure contribution. The half-life is in agreement past measurements strongly reduced uncertainty:...

The Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso of INFN in Italy is an experiment searching neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay. Its main goal to investigate this decay ^{130}Te, but its ton-scale mass and low background make CUORE sensitive other rare processes as well. In Letter, we present our first results on the search 0νββ ^{128}Te, Te isotope with second highest natural isotopic abundance. We find no evidence decay, using a...

Abstract The Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) is the most sensitive experiment searching neutrinoless double-beta decay (0 νββ ) in 130 Te. CUORE uses a cryogenic array of 988 TeO 2 calorimeters operated at ∼10 mK with total mass 741 kg. To further increase sensitivity, detector response must be well understood. Here, we present non-linear thermal model on detector-by-detector basis. We have examined both equilibrium and dynamic electro-thermal models detectors by...
