Background Analysis around Q_(beta-beta) for 76Ge Double Beta Decay experiments, and Statistics at Low Count Rates
arXiv:hep-ph/0308275 · doi:10.1016/S0168-9002(03)01822-9
Abstract
The background in the region of the Q-value for neutrinoless double beta decay of 76Ge has been investigated by different methods: Simulation with GEANT 4 of the HEIDELBERG-MOSCOW experiment, analysis of other Ge double beta experiments.Statistical features of the analysis at very low count rates are discussed.
