Description
This Workshop is intended as a "hands-on" workshop with a mixture of introductory lectures and practical exercises.
Time slots will be devoted to individual work with modern programming tools, particle generators and statistical analyses.
The goal is to enable the participant to calculate: 1. particle spectra from dark-matter decay or annihilation 2. fluxes as a function of line-of sight densities  3. flux limits and detection significances using the correct statistical methods. Registration for the workshop is now closed.
