CUORE

CUORE is a second-generation experiment for research in Double Beta Decay of ¹³⁰Te without neutrino emission. The sensitivity is such as to allow probing of the mass region of the neutrino suggested for inverse hierarchy by the results of the most recent experiments on neutrino oscillations.

It consists of bolometric TeO₂ crystals for a total mass of 741 kg, kept at a temperature of approx. 10 mK. In April 2017 the installation of the experimental apparatus was completed and the data collection started.
