Abstract

We report the present results of the CUORICINO experiment, a cryogenic experiment on neutrinoless Double Beta Decay (DBD) of Te-130 consisting of an array of 62TeO(2) crystals with a total active mass of 40.7kg. The array is framed inside a dilution refrigerator, heavily shielded against environmental radioactivity and high-energy neutrons, and it is operated at a temperature of 8 mK in the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory. After several improvements the live time of the experiment is near 75%. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
