Scientific paper

EDELWEISS is an experiment searching for dark matter WIMPs (weakly interacting massive particles) by measuring the heat and ionisation signals of low temperature germanium detectors. Following the successful conclusion of the first phase of EDELWEISS in the summer of 2003, involving a total of 1 kg of detector mass, phase II of the experiment was set-up in the Modane underground laboratory (LSM) and is now undergoing commissioning runs. It will operate 9 kg of detectors in a first step and 40 kg ultimately. A short summary of the results and conclusions from EDELWEISS I data and an update on the status of EDELWEISS II will be given in this article.
