Differential rates of WIMP-nucleus scattering
Project description
wimprates
Differential rates of WIMP-nucleus scattering in the standard halo model, primarily for xenon detectors.
https://github.com/JelleAalbers/wimprates
Installation and usage
pip install wimprates
- See this basic example for usage.
The package uses numericalunits (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/numericalunits); all function inputs
are expected to have proper units (except for the rate_wimp_std
convenience function).
Features
- Spin-indendent and spin-dependent DM-nucleus scattering;
- Elastic NR, bremsstrahlung, and Migdal effect detection mechanisms;
- Time dependent observed dark matter speed distribution (annual modulation only, no daily modulation);
- DM-electron scattering (experimental);
- Support for xenon (all models, default), argon, germanium, and silicon (many models).
