Description of CRESST-II data
G. Angloher, P. Bauer, A. Bento +47
In Phase 2 of CRESST-II 18 detector modules were operated for about two years (July 2013 - August 2015). Together with this document we are publishing data from two detector module…
Dark-Photon Search using Data from CRESST-II Phase 2
G. Angloher, P. Bauer, A. Bento +40
