The front-end electronics system for the CUORE experiment

Understand

CUORE is an array of thermal calorimeters composed of 988 crystals held at about 10 mK, whose absorbed energy is read out with semiconductor thermistors.

• The composition of the crystal is TeO2, and the aim is the study of the double beta decay of 130Te on very long and stable runs.
• CUPID-0 is an array of 26 Zn82Se crystals with double thermistor readout to study the double beta decay of 82Se.
• In the present paper, we present an overview of the entire front-end electronic readout chain, from the preamplifier to the anti-aliasing filter.
