Abstract

CUORICINO and CUORE are closely affiliated cryogenic bolometer experiments designed to search for neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay in ¹³⁰Te. Both experiments are carried out underground at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory, Italy, in order to achieve the extremely low backgrounds necessary for high-sensitivity searches of their kind. CUORICINO ran from 2003-2008 and served as a prototype for the upcoming CUORE detector, which will be 20 times larger. This article describes: the basics of 0?ββ decay; CUORICINO and its recent final result, which has set the most stringent limit to date on 0νββ decay in 130Te; and the physics goals and status of CUORE, which is currently under construction.
