We report on the measurement of the two-neutrino double beta decay half-life of $^{130}$Te with the CUORE-0 detector. From an exposure of 33.4 kg$cdot$y of TeO$_2$, the half-life is determined to be $T_{1/2}^{2 u}$ = [8.2 $pm$ 0.2 (stat.) $pm$ 0.6 (syst.)] $times$ 10$^{20}$y. This result is obtained after a detailed reconstruction of the sources responsible for the CUORE-0 counting rate, with a specific study of those contributing to the $^{130}$Te neutrinoless double beta decay region of interest.

We measured two-neutrino double beta decay of $^{130}$Te using an exposure of 300.7 kg$cdot$yr accumulated with the CUORE detector. Using a Bayesian analysis to fit simulated spectra to experimental data, it was possible to disentangle all the major
background sources and precisely measure the two-neutrino contribution. The half-life is in agreement with past measurements with a strongly reduced uncertainty: $T^{2 u}_{1/2} = 7.71^{+0.08}_{-0.06}mathrm{(stat.)}^{+0.12}_{-0.15}mathrm{(syst.)}times10^{20}$ yr. This measurement is the most precise determination of the $^{130}$Te 2$ ubetabeta$ decay half-life to date.
We report the results of a search for neutrinoless double-beta decay in a 9.8~kg$cdot$yr exposure of $^{130}$Te using a bolometric detector array, CUORE-0. The characteristic detector energy resolution and background level in the region of interest a
re $5.1pm 0.3{rm~keV}$ FWHM and $0.058 pm 0.004,(mathrm{stat.})pm 0.002,(mathrm{syst.})$~counts/(keV$cdot$kg$cdot$yr), respectively. The median 90%~C.L. lower-limit sensitivity of the experiment is $2.9times 10^{24}~{rm yr}$ and surpasses the sensitivity of previous searches. We find no evidence for neutrinoless double-beta decay of $^{130}$Te and place a Bayesian lower bound on the decay half-life, $T^{0 u}_{1/2}>$~$ 2.7times 10^{24}~{rm yr}$ at 90%~C.L. Combining CUORE-0 data with the 19.75~kg$cdot$yr exposure of $^{130}$Te from the Cuoricino experiment we obtain $T^{0 u}_{1/2} > 4.0times 10^{24}~mathrm{yr}$ at 90%~C.L.~(Bayesian), the most stringent limit to date on this half-life. Using a range of nuclear matrix element estimates we interpret this as a limit on the effective Majorana neutrino mass, $m_{betabeta}< 270$ -- $760~mathrm{meV}$.
We report on a search for double beta decay of $^{130}$Te to the first $0^{+}$ excited state of $^{130}$Xe using a 9.8 kg$cdot$yr exposure of $^{130}$Te collected with the CUORE-0 experiment. In this work we exploit different topologies of coincident
events to search for both the neutrinoless and two-neutrino double-decay modes. We find no evidence for either mode and place lower bounds on the half-lives: $tau^{0 u}_{0^+}>7.9cdot 10^{23}$ yr and $tau^{2 u}_{0^+}>2.4cdot 10^{23}$ yr. Combining our results with those obtained by the CUORICINO experiment, we achieve the most stringent constraints available for these processes: $tau^{0 u}_{0^+}>1.4cdot 10^{24}$ yr and $tau^{2 u}_{0^+}>2.5cdot 10^{23}$ yr.
The CUORE experiment is a large bolometric array searching for the lepton number violating neutrino-less double beta decay ($0 ubetabeta$) in the isotope $mathrm{^{130}Te}$. In this work we present the latest results on two searches for the double be
ta decay (DBD) of $mathrm{^{130}Te}$ to the first $0^{+}_2$ excited state of $mathrm{^{130}Xe}$: the $0 ubetabeta$ decay and the Standard Model-allowed two-neutrinos double beta decay ($2 ubetabeta$). Both searches are based on a 372.5 kg$times$yr TeO$_2$ exposure. The de-excitation gamma rays emitted by the excited Xe nucleus in the final state yield a unique signature, which can be searched for with low background by studying coincident events in two or more bolometers. The closely packed arrangement of the CUORE crystals constitutes a significant advantage in this regard. The median limit setting sensitivities at 90% Credible Interval (C.I.) of the given searches were estimated as $mathrm{S^{0 u}_{1/2} = 5.6 times 10^{24} : mathrm{yr}}$ for the ${0 ubetabeta}$ decay and $mathrm{S^{2 u}_{1/2} = 2.1 times 10^{24} : mathrm{yr}}$ for the ${2 ubetabeta}$ decay. No significant evidence for either of the decay modes was observed and a Bayesian lower bound at $90%$ C.I. on the decay half lives is obtained as: $mathrm{(T_{1/2})^{0 u}_{0^+_2} > 5.9 times 10^{24} : mathrm{yr}}$ for the $0 ubetabeta$ mode and $mathrm{(T_{1/2})^{2 u}_{0^+_2} > 1.3 times 10^{24} : mathrm{yr}}$ for the $2 ubetabeta$ mode. These represent the most stringent limits on the DBD of $^{130}$Te to excited states and improve by a factor $sim5$ the previous results on this process.
The primary goal of the GERmanium Detector Array (Gerda) experiment at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso of INFN is the search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of Ge-76. High-purity germanium detectors made from material enriched in Ge-76
are operated directly immersed in liquid argon, allowing for a substantial reduction of the background with respect to predecessor experiments. The first 5.04 kg yr of data collected in Phase I of the experiment have been analyzed to measure the half-life of the neutrino-accompanied double beta decay of Ge-76. The observed spectrum in the energy range between 600 and 1800 keV is dominated by the double beta decay of Ge-76. The half-life extracted from Gerda data is T(1/2) = (1.84 +0.14 -0.10) 10^{21} yr.
