Abstract: (APS)

The results of a search for particle dark matter with a germanium detector at the Canfranc tunnel are reported. Contour limits for cross sections, masses, and local halo densities of dark matter particles interacting with Ge nuclei through spin-independent interactions are presented for an exposure of 130.7 kg day. The results and prospects of a search for the timing modulation of the signal are also reported.
