Neutrino coherent scattering rates at direct dark matter detectors
LE Strigari - New Journal of Physics, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
Neutrino-induced recoil events may constitute a background to direct dark matter searches,
particularly for those detectors that strive to reach the ton-scale and beyond. This paper …

The impact of priors and observables on parameter inferences in the constrained MSSM
We use a newly released version of the SuperBayeS code to analyze the impact of the
choice of priors and the influence of various constraints on the statistical conclusions for the …

DAMA and WIMP dark matter
FJ Petriello, KM Zurek - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We study whether spin-independent scattering of weakly-interacting massive particles
(WIMPs) with nuclei can account for the annual modulation signal reported by DAMA. We …

Inelastic dark matter, non-standard halos and the DAMA/LIBRA results
J March-Russell, C McCabe… - Journal of High Energy …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
The DAMA collaboration have claimed to detect particle dark matter (DM) via an annual
modulation in their observed recoil event rate. This appears to be in strong disagreement …
