TL;DR: The CRESST-II cryogenic Dark Matter search, aiming at detection of WIMPs via elastic scattering off nuclei in CaWO4 crystals, completed 730 kg days of data taking in 2011 as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the data collected with eight detector modules, each with a two-channel readout; one for a phonon signal and the other for coincidently produced scintillation light.

TL;DR: The CRESST cryogenic direct dark matter search at Gran Sasso, searching for WIMPs via nuclear recoil as discussed by the authors, has been upgraded with a new detector support structure capable of accommodating 33 modules, the associated multichannel readout with 66 SQUID channels, a neutron shield, a calibration source lift and the installation of a muon veto.

TL;DR: In this paper, solar neutrinos can be used as a background source for direct dark matter search experiments using Ge, Ar, Xe and CaWO4 as target materials.

TL;DR: The European Underground Rare Event Calorimeter Array (EURECA) as discussed by the authors is a new project, searching for dark matter, with largely the present groups of the CRESST and EDELWEISS experiments and already a few new groups.
