Search for the neutrinoless double beta decay (ββ) of 76Ge: GERDA Phase II commissioning — •Tobias Bode for the GERDA collaboration — Physik-Department E15, Technische Universität München, Deutschland

After successful completion of Phase I the Gerda (Germanium Detector Array) experiment underwent a major upgrade of the experimental apparatus. These upgrades include additional 20 kg of custom-made detectors with improved background rejection capabilities, accompanied by improved front-end electronics and an active liquid argon scintillation light veto. A sensitivity on the neutrinoless double beta decay half-life (T1/2) of 1026 yr should be reached after a few years of data taking (Phase II). First results of Phase II commissioning and latest results from Phase I analyses will be presented in this talk. This work was partly funded by BMBF 05A14W03.
