Abstract
The purpose of this article is to give a short introduction into the main aspects of a fast evolving field of research, namely the direct detection of possible dark matter particles [1, 2, 3], the so called WIMPs (Weakly Interacting Massive Particles).
Talk presented at the NATO ASI on Masses of Fundamental Particles (Cargèse, August 5–17, 1996) by Y. Ramachers
