    "abstract": "We have developed a detector, consisting of a cryogenic calorimeter with a\nscintillating crystal as absorber, and a second calorimeter for the detection\nof the scintillation light, both operated at 12 mK. Using a CaWO4 crystal with\na mass of 6g as scintillating absorber, we have achieved a discrimination of\nnuclear recoils against electron recoils with a suppression factor of 99.7% at\nenergies above 15 keV. This novel method will be applied for background\nrejection in the CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting\nThermometers) experiment looking for dark matter Weakly Interacting Massive\nParticles (WIMPs).",
