Status of the HDMS Experiment, the GENIUS Project and the GENIUS-TF

  • Conference paper
Dark Matter in Astro- and Particle Physics

Abstract

The status of dark matter search in Heidelberg is reviewed. After one year of running the HDMS prototype experiment in the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory, the inner crystal of the detector has been replaced with a HPGe crystal of enriched 73Ge. The results of the operation of the HDMS prototype detector are discussed. In the light of the contradictive results from the CDMS and DAMA experiments the GENIUS-TF, a new experimental setup is proposed. The GENIUS-TF could probe the DAMA evidence region using the WIMP nucleus recoil signal and WIMP annual modulation signature simulataneously. Besides that it can prove some key parameters of the detector technique, to be implemented into the GENIUS setup and will in this sense be a first step towards the realization of the GENIUS experiment.
