HAP Workshop 2014 on data analysis for indirect dark matter searches

10 Mar 2014, 12:00 → 13 Mar 2014, 16:30 Europe/Berlin

0'119 (Berlin (Adlershof))

Gernot Maier (DESY Zeuthen), Klaus Eitel (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), Lutz Köpke (Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz), Markus Ackermann (DESY), Rolf Bühler (DESY Zeuthen), Ullrich Schwanke (Humboldt University Berlin)

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.
