Many low-threshold experiments observe sharply rising event rates of yet unknown origins
below a few hundred eV, and larger than expected from known backgrounds. Due to the …

This review aims to cover the history and recent developments on cryogenic bolometers for
neutrinoless double beta decay (0 ν 2 β) searches. A 0 ν 2 β decay observation would …

Neutrino-less double-beta decay (0 ν β β) is a hypothetical nuclear transition which violates
lepton-number conservation and is therefore forbidden by the Standard Model of particle …

Recent advances in photoconductive and bolometric semiconductor detectors for
wavelengths 1 mm> λ> 50 μm are reviewed. Progress in detector performance in this photon …

CUPID-0 is the first large mass array of enriched Zn^ 82 82 Se scintillating low temperature
calorimeters, operated at LNGS since 2017. During its first scientific runs, CUPID-0 collected …

Presenting an up-to-date report on electronic glasses, this book examines experiments and
theories for a variety of disordered materials where electrons exhibit glassy properties …

A review of cryogenic particle detectors is presented. A major motivation for developing this
type of particle detector is their superior sensitivity to weakly ionizing particle interactions …

During the last couple of decades, the use of arrays of bolometers has represented one of
the leading techniques for the search for rare events. CUORE, an array of 988 TeO 2 …

The standard nonequilibrium theory of noise in ideal bolometers and microcalorimeters fails
to predict the performance of real devices due to additional effects that become important at …

The rapid development of low temperature thermal detectors since the early 1980s has
resulted in remarkable improvements in the sensitivity and precision of many types of …
