摘要

Founded in 2009, the China Dark Matter Experiment (CDEX) collaboration was dedicated to the detection of dark matter (DM) and neutrinoless double beta decay using high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors in the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. HPGe detectors are characterized by a high energy resolution, low analysis threshold, and low radioactive background, making them an ideal platform for the direct detection of DM. Over the years, CDEX has accumulated a massive amount of experimental data, based on which various results on DM detection and neutrinoless double beta decay have been presented. Because the dataset was collected in a low-background environment, apart from the analysis of DM-related physical channels, it has great potential as an indicator in other rare physical events searches. Furthermore, by providing raw pulse shapes, the dataset can serve as a tool for effectively understanding the internal mechanisms of HPGe detectors.
