    The detectors are made from germanium with the fraction of the 76Ge isotope enriched from 7.8% to about 87%. Since the source and the detector of Ovßß decay are identical in this calorimetric approach, the detection efficiency is high. A rock overburden of about 3,500 m water equivalent removes the hadronic components of cosmic ray showers and reduces the muon flux at the experiment by six orders of magnitude, to 1.2 muons m-2 h-1.
