Sensitivity of the EDELWEISS WIMP search to spin-dependent interactions
A. Benoit, L. Berge, J. Bluemer +35
The EDELWEISS collaboration is searching for WIMP dark matter using natural Ge cryogenic detectors. The whole data set of the first phase of the experiment contains a fiducial expo…

Detection of the Natural Alpha Decay of Tungsten
C. Cozzini, G. Angloher, C. Bucci +21
The natural alpha decay of 180W has been unambiguously detected for the first time. The alpha peak is found in a (gamma,beta and neutron)-free background spectrum. This has been ac…

Limits on WIMP dark matter using scintillating CaWO4 cryogenic detectors with active background suppression
G. Angloher, C. Bucci, P. Christ +21
We present first significant limits on WIMP dark matter by the phonon-light technique, where combined phonon and light signals from a scintillating cryogenic detector are used. Dat…
