Denoising Algorithms for the CUORE Experiment

ORAL

Abstract

The Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) experiment is an ongoing search for neutrinoless double beta decay located at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) in Italy. Recent work using seismometric and geological data has demonstrated that the CUORE detector is sensitive to vibrational noise from sea storms near LNGS in the Tyrrhenian and Adriatic seas. We have also shown that the quality of CUORE data can be improved with noise decorrelation algorithms using data from auxiliary devices including microphones, accelerometers, and seismometers. We have also motivated an expanded non-linear model which improves the performance of the algorithm for the CUORE detector. Here I will discuss the implementation of these noise decorrelation algorithms in the CUORE analysis framework and their implementation in the latest analysis of CUORE data. The results of the noise decorrelation including the impact on the energy resolution across the CUORE detector for many years of data-taking will also be discussed.
