We present a new measurement of the 2nbb half-life of 130Te (T1/2) using the first complete model of the CUORE data, based on 1038 kg yr of collected exposure. Thanks to optimized data selection, we achieve a factor of two improvement in precision, obtaining T1/2 = (9.32 +0.05 -0.04 (stat.) +0.07 -0.07 (syst.)) x10^20 yr. The signal-to-background ratio is increased by 70% compared to our previous results, enabling the first application of the improved 2nbb formalism to 130Te. Within this framework, we determine a credibility interval for the effective axial coupling in the nuclear medium as a function of nuclear matrix elements. We also extract values for the higher-order nuclear matrix element ratios: second-to-first and third-to-first. The second-to-first ratio agrees with nuclear model predictions, while the third-to-first ratio deviates from theoretical expectations. These findings provide essential tests of nuclear models and key inputs for future 0nbb searches.

    Enlarging the VS-IMSRG valence space from pf to d3/2pf for 48Ca brings the 2 uetaeta NME into agreement with experiment and roughly doubles the 0 uetaeta NME.
