The EDELWEISS collaboration is performing a direct search for WIMP dark matter in a low-background environment in the Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane. Two series of results obtained with 320 g heat-andionization detectors are presented. During the 4.53 effective exposure of the year 2000 run, no nu

The final results of the EDELWEISS-I dark matter search using cryogenic heat-and-ionization Ge detectors are presented. The final data sample corresponds to an increase by a factor five in exposure relative to the previously published results. A recoil energy threshold of 13 keV or better was achiev
Different techniques are currently competing in the direct search of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMP) dark matter, which consists in observing in the laboratory nuclear recoils due to impact of WIMPs from our galactic halo. As an introduction to this Dark Matter session, the experimental
Surface charging effects are investigated in a germanium ionization-heat detector operated at cryogenic temperatures. Under properly defined biasing conditions, carriers of one type only (either electrons or holes) are driven in a controlled manner into the free surfaces of the detector where they b
