Scientific paper

The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) experiment uses germanium and silicon detectors cooled to 20 mK to attempt to detect weakly interacting dark matter particles in our galactic halo. Simultaneous measurement of phonons and ionization from interactions in these detectors allows a high degree of background rejection. We discuss recent results obtained with an array of two 165 g germanium detectors and a 100 g silicon detector after a 33 live-day exposure. Further development of this technology should allow us to explore a significant fraction of the MSSM parameter space for neutralino dark matter.
