Let k be an algebraically closed field and let _d^G(N) be the open locus of the Hilbert scheme _d(N) corresponding to Gorenstein subschemes. We prove that _d^G(N) is irreducible for d≤9, we characterize geometrically its singularities for d≤8 and we give some results about them when d=9

which give some evidence to a conjecture on the nature of the singular points in
