Unprecedented in size among cryogenic calorimetric experiments, CUORE provides a promising setting for the study of exotic throughgoing particles. Using the first tonne year of CUORE's exposure, we perform a search for hypothesized fractionally charged particles (FCPs), which are well-motivated by various standard model extensions and would have suppressed interactions with matter. Across the searched range of charges e/24 - e/2 no excess of FCP candidate tracks is observed over background, setting leading limits on the underground FCP flux with charges e/24 - e/5 at 90% confidence level. Using the low background environment and segmented geometry of CUORE, we establish the sensitivity of tonne-scale subkelvin detectors to diverse signatures of new physics.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 InternationalSearch for Fractionally Charged Particles with CUOREArticle - RefereedPhysical Review Lettershttps://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.133.24180113324397503261079-7114
