TL;DR
The paper discusses the GENIUS project's potential as a dark matter detector, focusing on background simulation and detector design, suggesting it could explore significant MSSM parameter space.
Contribution
It presents background simulations and technical studies demonstrating the feasibility of the GENIUS detector design for dark matter detection.
Findings
Background components were successfully simulated.
The detector design shows good behavior in liquid nitrogen.
GENIUS could explore a large part of MSSM parameter space.
Abstract
The potential of GENIUS as a dark matter detector is discussed. A study was performed to demonstrate the good behaviour of the proposed detector design of naked HPGe-crystals in liquid nitrogen. The expected background components were simulated and are discussed in some detail.With the obtained background GENIUS could cover a large part of the favoured MSSM parameter-space.
