Abstract

The goal of the Advanced Mo-based Rare process Experiment (AMoRE) is to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 100Mo using low-temperature detectors consisting of molybdenum-based scintillating crystals read out via metallic magnetic calorimeters. Simultaneous measurements of heat and light signals are performed at mK temperatures, which are reached by using a dilution refrigerator. A pilot experiment, named AMoRE-Pilot, using five 100Mo-enriched, 48Ca-depleted 40Ca100MoO4 crystals with a total mass of about 1.5 kg, has been running in the 700-m-deep YangYang underground Laboratory. The current setup and status of the AMoRE experiment are presented.
