Halo-independent comparison of direct dark matter detection data: a review
High Energy Physics - Phenomenology
2014-04-17 v1
Abstract
We review the halo-independent formalism, that allows to compare data from different direct dark matter detection experiments without making assumptions on the properties of the dark matter halo. We apply this method to spin-independent WIMP-nuclei interactions, for both isospin-conserving and isospin-violating couplings, and to WIMPs interacting through an anomalous magnetic moment.
