A search for low-mass WIMPs with EDELWEISS-II heat-and-ionization
  detectors
  We report on a search for low-energy (E < 20 keV) WIMP-induced nuclear
recoils using data collected in 2009 - 2010 by EDELWEISS from four germanium
detectors equipped with thermal sensors and an electrode design (ID) which
allows to efficiently reject several sources of background. The data indicate
no evidence for an exponential distribution of low-energy nuclear recoils that
could be attributed to WIMP elastic scattering after an exposure of 113 kg.d.
For WIMPs of mass 10 GeV, the observation of one event in the WIMP search
region results in a 90% CL limit of 1.0x10^-5 pb on the spin-independent
WIMP-nucleon scattering cross-section, which constrains the parameter space
associated with the findings reported by the CoGeNT, DAMA and CRESST
experiments.
