The CUPID-0 experiment searches for neutrinoless double beta decay using the first array of enriched Zn82Se scintillating bolometers with double (heat and light) read-out. To further enhance the CUPID-0 detector performances, the heat-light correlation has been exploited to improve the energy resolution. Different decorrelation algorithms have...

The production of ultra-pure raw material is a crucial step to ensure the required background level in rare event searches. In this work, we establish an innovative technique developed to produce high-purity (99.999%) granular zinc. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the refining procedure by measuring the internal contaminations of the...
