New ultra–low background Ge-detector for M-Cavern at Gran Sasso — •G. Rugel¹, F.X. Hartmann¹, G. Heusser¹, M. Keillor¹, M. Laubenstein², and S. Schönert¹ — ¹Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik, Postfach 103980, D-69029 Heidelberg — ²INFN, Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, I-67010 Assergi, Italy

We will report on the progress of the design and construction of a new ultra–low background HPGe detector. This detector will be located at a new low–level research facility (M-Cavern) at the Gran Sasso underground laboratory. This spectrometer builds upon MPIK experience with GeMPI [1].

Research sponsored by MPG, MPI für Kernphysik, Heidelberg and ONL/NRL (Dr. F. Giovanne).
