7. 7 EDELWEISS II limits (2011) and EDELWEISS -CDMS combined analysis 10 ID detectors of 400 g operated during ~ 1 y CDMS has same target and same sensitivity Simple merger of data sets chosen prior to any analysis. EDW II: 384 kg.d, [20- 200keV], 5 evts CDMS: ~379 kg.d, [~10-100keV], 4 evts => ~50% gain at high WIMP masses. NB : CDMS decides on an ID-inspired design for the electrodes of its future detectors.

8. Recent EDELWEISS low mass analysis Realization that, despite being tuned for M WIMP ~100 GeV, EDELWEISS-II had significant efficiency down to 5 keV recoil Significant background rejection with ID electrodes down to low energy wth subset of data => significant improvement down to 7 GeV WIMP mass Resolutions are improving with new electronics (FWHM 900 eV -> 650 eV for ionization, 1.25 -> <1 keV for heat) 500 eV achieved in tests (HEMT R&D to go down to 300 eV?) 25 octobre 2012EDELWEISS-III report to CSIN2P3 EDW II LE PRD 86 (2012) 051701R 10 GeV WIMP – ID3
