Understand

The experiment CRESST-II aims at the detection of dark matter with scintillating CaWO$_4$ crystals operated as cryogenic detectors.

Recent results on spin-independent WIMP-nucleon scattering from the CRESST-II Phase 2 allowed to probe a new region of parameter space for WIMP masses below 3 GeV/c$^2$.
This sensitivity was achieved after background levels were reduced significantly.
We present extensive background studies of a CaWO$_4$ crystal, called TUM40, grown at the Technische Universit\"at M\"unchen.
