Background effects on reconstructed WIMP couplings
Chung-Lin Shan
TL;DR
This paper discusses how small, unrejected background events can influence the accuracy of determining WIMP couplings and cross sections in dark matter detection experiments.
Contribution
It provides an analysis of the impact of background effects on the reconstruction of WIMP couplings, highlighting potential biases.
Findings
Background events can significantly affect WIMP coupling estimates.
Unrejected backgrounds introduce systematic uncertainties.
Accurate background modeling is crucial for reliable WIMP parameter determination.
Abstract
In this talk, I presented effects of small, but non-negligible unrejected background events on the determinations of WIMP couplings/cross sections.
