Abstract

CUORE is a 741 kg array of TeO2 bolometers for the search of neutrinoless double beta decay in 130Te. The detector is being constructed at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy, where it will start taking data in 2015. If the target background of 0.01 counts/(keV·kg·y) will be reached, in five years of data taking CUORE will have a half life sensitivity of ∼ 1026 y. CUORE-0 is a smaller experiment constructed to test and demonstrate the performances expected for CUORE. The detector is a single tower of 52 CUORE-like bolometers that started taking data in spring 2013. The status and perspectives of the CUORE and CUORE-0 experiments will be presented.
