Abstract
A dark matter detection experiment using a low temperature 24 g sapphi re bolometer is presented, The low radioactive background cryogenic fa cility, installed in a deep underground site, is described, as well as the low-noise read-out electronics and the data analysis, From the en ergy spectrum, measured down to 4 keV, exclusion plots are derived for WIMPs having coherent vector coupling or axial coupling to ordinary m atter.
