CUORE, an array of 988 TeO2 bolometers, is about to be one of the most sensitive experiments searching for neutrinoless double-beta decay. Its sensitivity could be further improved by removing the background from α radioactivity. A few years ago it was pointed out that the signal from βs can be tagged by detecting the emitted Cherenkov light,...

The LUCIFER project aims at deploying the first array of enriched scintillating bolometers for the investigation of neutrinoless double-beta decay of (Formula presented.). The matrix which embeds the source is an array of ZnSe crystals, where enriched (Formula presented.) is used as decay isotope. The radiopurity of the initial components...

We present the search for Lorentz violation in the double beta decay of Se-82 with CUPID-0, using an exposure of 9.95 kg x yr. We found no evidence for the searched signal and set a limit on the isotropic components of the Lorentz violating coefficient of (a) over circle ((3))(of) < 4.1 x 10(-6) GeV (90% credible interval). This results is...

The CUPID-0 detector hosted at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy, is the first large array of enriched scintillating cryogenic detectors for the investigation of82Se neutrinoless double-beta decay (0). CUPID-0 aims at measuring a background index in the region of interest (RoI) for 0at the level of 10- 3 counts/(keV kg years), the...

The CUPID-0 experiment searches for double beta decay using cryogenic calorimeters with double (heat and light) read-out. The detector, consisting of 24 ZnSe crystals 95% enriched in 82 Se and two natural ZnSe crystals, started data-taking in 2017 at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso. We present the search for the neutrino-less double beta...

The suppression of spurious events in the region of interest for neutrinoless double beta decay will play a major role in next generation experiments. The background of detectors based on the technology of cryogenic calorimeters is expected to be dominated by α particles, that could be disentangled from double beta decay signals by exploiting...

We report the result of the search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 82Se obtained with CUPID-0, the first large array of scintillating Zn82Se cryogenic calorimeters implementing particle identification. We observe no signal in a 1.83 kg yr 82Se exposure, and we set the most stringent lower limit on the 0vββ 82Se half-life T0v 1=2 > 2.4 ×...
