Maximum likelihood analysis of low energy CDMS II germanium data

Maximum likelihood analysis of low energy CDMS II germanium data

We report on the results of a search for a Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) signal in low-energy data of the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search experiment using a maximum likelihood analysis. A background model is constructed using geant4 to simulate the surface-event background from [superscrip...
