Channeling in direct dark matter detection III: channeling fraction in CsI crystals
arXiv:1009.3325 · doi:10.1088/1475-7516/2010/11/029
Abstract
The channeling of the ion recoiling after a collision with a WIMP changes the ionization signal in direct detection experiments, producing a larger signal scintillation or ionization than otherwise expected. We give estimates of the fraction of channeled recoiling ions in CsI crystals using analytic models produced since the 1960's and 70's to describe channeling and blocking effects.
