Description

Search for neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) is a key experiment to answer unresolved properties of neutrino. Experimental observation of 0νββ will provide a direct answer to the particle type of neutrino (i.e., the Dirac-or-Majorana question), validate lepton number violation in the field of particle physics, and confine the absolute mass scale of neutrino. A number of large scale experiments have been searching, and are planned to search for 0νββ. Low-temperature thermal calorimeters based on thermal calorimetric measurement have been playing a major role in the effort to probe the rare event. In the presentation, current 0νββ search experiments are introduced with their main detection technologies. Advantages and challenges using the detector technologies are discussed in comparison with other technologies used for 0νββ. Moreover, I will present the prospective and recent progress of AMoRE double beta decay experiment.
