✦ Synopsis

A pilot experiment in the search for light gauge bosons at the spectrometer setup of the A1 collaboration at MAMI is presented. Light gauge bosons arise naturally in a wide range of theoretical approaches beyond the standard model and are in accordance with several pieces of experimental evidence not yet understood in the standard model. A first test measurement at MAMI showed that existing limits on the coupling of such a light gauge boson can be improved by nearly an order of magnitude by fixed target experiments at existing electron accelerators.

Dark Matter (DM) as a weakly interacting massive particle could annihilate or decay and give rise to high energy gamma-rays. Then an indirect search for Dark Matter is possible by means of the Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi satellite. A relatively large signal is expected from the regions w

We present a new Germanium Dark Matter Experiment. It consists of two HPGe-Detectors which are run in a unique configuration. The anticoincidence between the two detectors will further reduce the background that we achieve now in the Heidelberg-Moscow-Experiment and will allow to improve WIMP cross
