Optimizing WIMP directional detectors
We study the dependence of the exposure required to directly detect a WIMP directional recoil signal on the capabilities of a directional detector. Specifically we consider variations in the nuclear recoil energy threshold, the background rate, whether the detector measures the recoil momentum vector in 2 or 3 dimensions and whether or not the sense of the momentum vector can be determined. We ...
متن کاملDirectional line detectors in correlated noisy environments
In this research, we present a methodology for extracting very narrow lines in correlated noisy environments. The approach is a generalization of the analysis of variance applied to the symmetrically balanced incomplete-blocks design. It encompasses many well-known algorithms when subjected to more restrictive conditions. The detector is robust and superior to the polynomial-approximation-based...
متن کاملDirectional Movement and Horizontal Edge Detectors in the Pigeon Retina.
There are ganglion cells in the pigeon retina that respond selectively, some to any edge moving in a particcular direction only, others to any vertically moving horizontal edge. This selective response to a specific stimulus arises from the selective sensitivity of each neuron to a particular spatiotemporal configuration in its afferent influences, and is independent of specific pathways.
متن کاملDiffuse optical tomography using multi-directional sources and detectors.
Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is an advanced imaging method used to visualize the internal state of biological tissues as 3D images. However, current continuous-wave DOT requires high-density probe arrays for measurement (less than 15-mm interval) to gather enough information for 3D image reconstruction, which makes the experiment time-consuming. In this paper, we propose a novel DOT measure...
متن کاملRecoil momentum spectrum in directional dark matter detectors
Directional dark matter detectors will be able to record the recoil momentum spectrum of nuclei hit by dark matter WIMPs. We show that the recoil momentum spectrum is the Radon transform of the WIMP velocity distribution. This allows us to obtain analytic expressions for the recoil spectra of a variety of velocity distributions. We comment on the possibility of inverting the recoil momentum spe...
