CRESST: First results with the phonon-light technique

We present first significant limits on WIMP dark matter by the phonon-light technique, where combined phonon and light signals from a scintillating cryogenic detector are used to suppress the non-nuclear recoil background. The performance of the detectors developed for the second phase of the CRESST experiment will be discussed and data collected with two prototype modules in a short run, corresponding to a net exposure of 20.5kg days, will be presented.
