In the HighMass and LowMass folders, you will find a number of tabulated speed distributions, calculated taking into account the effects of Earth-scattering. Each file is named as Speeddist_op=[operator]_mx=[A.BC]_gam=[X.YZ]_ps=0.10.dat, where [operator] is either 1, 8 or 12. The results are for a scattering probability of 10%. The value [X.YZ] is the angle gamma in units of pi (so 1.00 is gamma = pi).
The results in the HighMass folder are for a 50 GeV DM particle ([A.BC] = 50.00) while the results in LowMass are for a 0.5 GeV DM particle ([A.BC]=0.50).
Each data file contains 4 columns:
| v [km/s] | f(v) [s/km] | f_A(v) - f(v) [s/km] | f_D(v) [s/km] |
|---|
Here, f(v) is the free (unperturbed) speed distribution, f_A(v) is the speed distribution after attenuation, and f_D(v) is the enhancement due to deflection. The full, perturbed speed distribution is the sum of the last three columns.
In the pscat folder, you will find tables giving the DM-nucleon couplings required for a given average scattering probability. The files are named as couplings_op=[operator]_ps=[prob].dat. As above, [operator] is either 1, 8 or 12. The scattering probability is then [prob] which can be 0.01, 0.10 or 0.50.
Each data file contains 2 columns:
| Log10[m_x / GeV] | c / GeV^(-2) |
|---|
Here, m_x is the DM mass and c is the isoscalar DM-nucleon coupling for the operator in question.
In the CRESST-II folder are results for the ratio of the number of events in a CRESST-II-like detector with and without including the effects of Earth-Scattering. The files are named as CRESSTRate_op=[operator]_mx=[A.BC]_ps=[prob].dat. As above, [operator] is either 1, 8 or 12. So far, only the files with [A.BC] = 0.50 and [prob] = 0.10 are included.
Each data file contains 4 columns:
| gamma/pi | Nfree - NA | Nfree + ND | Nfree - NA + ND |
|---|
Here, gamma is the angle of the detector with respect to the DM wind, Nfree is the number of events without Earth-Scattering, NA is the contribution from attenuation and ND the contribution from deflection. The results are normalised such that Nfree = 1.
