# Moduli of rational equivalent classes of 0-cycles

Let $$X$$ be a smooth variety over a field $$k$$ and I'd like to think about $$CH_0(X)$$ the 0-Chow group i.e. the group of rational equivalent classes of 0-cycles. I'm wondering if there is any reasonable formulation to make sense of "family"/"moduli" of rational equivalent classes of 0-cycles, forming an fppf sheaf over $$\text{Spec} k$$? If there is such a sheaf, is there any chance the sheaf is actually representable?

A quick literature search shows some work on certain formulations of "Chow schemes". However, they seem to parametrize the 0-cycles, instead of the rational equivalent classes. But this seems to suggest that now we only need to construct a subsheaf of principal 0-cycles and then we can consider the quotient sheaf.

A known example: if X is in addition one dimensional and proper, we can speak of the Picard scheme which represents the relative Picard functor. I would really like to know what happens when the dimension goes higher.

When $$X$$ is a smooth projective variety over an algebraically close field $$k$$, then $$CH_0(X)_{tors} = Alb(X)_{tors}$$, a result due to Rojtman in https://www.jstor.org/stable/1971109?seq=1#metadata_info_tab_contents in characteristic zero, and with variants by Bloch (http://www.numdam.org/item/CM_1979__39_1_107_0/) and Milne (http://www.numdam.org/item/CM_1982__47_3_271_0/) for torsion away and at the characteristic respectively.
In general and not restricted to torsion, even for the simplest case of surfaces over $$\mathbb{C}$$, this is not really possible. Mumford proved that as soon as $$p_g > 0$$ the albanese map is not, in general, injective https://projecteuclid.org/euclid.kjm/1250523940 but it is expected that the map should be injective when $$p_g = 0$$ and this is known as Bloch's conjecture which has been verified for many surfaces but it still pen in general.
