The CRESST dark matter experiment: status and perspectives

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2000
Abstract The CRESST experiment in its first phase is using sapphire detectors with tungsten phase transition thermometers to search for dark matter WIMPs. At present four 262 g detectors are performing first measurements under low background conditions. Detector performance as well as preliminary results from the background runs are presented.

Detector calibration measurements in CRESST

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2006
Abstract The CRESST dark matter experiment uses the simultaneous measurement of the scintillation light and the heat signal of a CaWO 4 crystal to discriminate between background electron recoil and nuclear recoil events. At the Technical University of Munich calibration measurements have been performed to characterize the detectors.

Cresst-II: dark matter search with scintillating absorbers

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2004
In the CRESST-II experiment, scintillating CaWO4 crystals are used as absorbers for direct WIMP (weakly interacting massive particles) detection. Nuclear recoils can be discriminated against electron recoils by measuring phonons and scintillation light simultaneously.

Light detector development for CRESST II

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2004
Abstract CRESST-II detector modules rely on the ability to actively discriminate electron recoils from nuclear recoils via simultaneous measurement of phonons and scintillation light. The scintillation light produced in each target crystal is detected via an associated calorimeter consisting of a thin silicon wafer read out by a tungsten phase ...
