摘要
The Heidelberg dark matter search (HDMS) is an experiment designed for the search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter. It is using a special configuration of Ge detectors, to efficiently reduce the background in the low-energy region below 100 keV. After one year of running the HDMS detector prototype in the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory, the inner crystal of the detector has been replaced with a HPGe crystal of enriched Ge-73. The final setup started data taking in Gran Sasso in August 2000. The performance and the first results of the measurement with the final setup are discussed. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
