CUORE Opens the Door to Tonne-scale Cryogenics Experiments
CUORE Collaboration, D. Q. Adams, C. Alduino +206
The past few decades have seen major developments in the design and operation of cryogenic particle detectors. This technology offers an extremely good energy resolution - comparab…
First Results from CUORE: A Search for Lepton Number Violation via Decay of Te
CUORE Collaboration, C. Alduino, K. Alfonso +162
The CUORE experiment, a ton-scale cryogenic bolometer array, recently began operation at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. The array represents a significant advanc…
CUORE-0 detector: design, construction and operation
CUORE Collaboration, C. Alduino, K. Alfonso +151
The CUORE experiment will search for neutrinoless double-beta decay of Te with an array of 988 TeO bolometers arranged in 19 towers. CUORE-0, the first tower assembled…
Validation of techniques to mitigate copper surface contamination in CUORE
F. Alessandria, R. Ardito, D. R. Artusa +115
In this article we describe the background challenges for the CUORE experiment posed by surface contamination of inert detector materials such as copper, and present three techniqu…
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…
