"CUORE-0 is a neutrinoless double beta decay (0$\nu\beta\beta$) experiment
built to test and demonstrate the performances of the upcoming CUORE experiment.
Composed of 52 $^{\rm nat}$TeO$_2$ bolometers of 750 g each, it is expected to reach a sensitivity to the 0$\nu\beta\beta$ half-life of $^{130}$Te around $5\cdot10^{24}$ y. CUORE-0 started to take data in April. CUORE-0 data are here...

The CUORE (Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events) experiment will search for neutrino-less double beta decay (NDBD) of Te-130. With 741 kg of TeO2 crystals and an excellent energy resolution of 5 keV (0.2%) at the region of interest, CUORE will be one of the most competitive neutrino-less double beta decay experiments on the horizon. CUORE is expected to start physics run in 2014...

The SNO+ liquid scintillator experiment, due to begin taking data over the next year, aims to probe a wide range of fundamental physics. One of the highest priorities for the project is a sensitive search for neutrinoless double beta decay, to be achieved by loading large quantities of 130Te into the scintillator and taking advantage of a large, highly pure, self-shielded liquid volume....

The AMoRE (Advanced Mo-based Rare process Experiment) project is an international experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 100Mo. The project employs a cryogenic detection method using magnetic calorimeters as sensor and CaMoO4 crystals as absorber in the concept of source equal to detector. It is scheduled to prepare a large scale experiment with 200 kg 40Ca100MoO4 crystals...

We investigate the possibility to discriminate between different pairs of CP non-conserving mechanisms inducing the neutrinoless double beta $\betabeta$-decay by using data on $\betabeta$-decay half-lives of nuclei with largely different nuclear matrix elements (NMEs). The mechanisms studied are: light Majorana neutrino exchange, heavy left-handed (LH) and heavy right-handed (RH) Majorana...
