Exploring the Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay in the Inverted Neutrino Hierarchy with Bolometric Detectors

D. R. Artusa, F. T. Avignone, O. Azzolini +116

Neutrinoless double beta decay (0nubb) is one of the most sensitive probes for physics beyond the Standard Model, providing unique information on the nature of neutrinos. In this p…

Search for 14.4 keV solar axions from M1 transition of Fe-57 with CUORE crystals

The Cuore Collaboration, F. Alessandria, R. Ardito +112

We report the results of a search for axions from the 14.4 keV M1 transition from Fe-57 in the core of the sun using the axio-electric effect in TeO2 bolometers. The detectors are…

The low energy spectrum of TeO2 bolometers: results and dark matter perspectives for the CUORE-0 and CUORE experiments

F. Alessandria, R. Ardito, D. R. Artusa +113

We collected 19.4 days of data from four 750 g TeO2 bolometers, and in three of them we were able to set the energy threshold around 3 keV using a new analysis technique. We found…
