Exclusion regions and their power
L. Fleysher, R. Fleysher, T. J. Haines +2
The question of exclusion region construction in new phenomenon searches has been causing considerable discussions for many years and yet no clear mathematical definition of the pr…
The uniformly most powerful test of statistical significance for counting-type experiments with background
L. Fleysher, R. Fleysher, T. J. Haines +2
In this paper, after a discussion of general properties of statistical tests, we present the construction of the most powerful hypothesis test for determining the existence of a ne…
Search for relic neutralinos with Milagro
Lazar Fleysher
The neutralino, the lightest stable supersymmetric particle, is a strong theoretical candidate for the missing astronomical "dark matter". Depending on their annihilation cross sec…
Evidence for TeV Emission from GRB 970417a
The Milagro Collaboration, R. Atkins, W. Benbow +37
Milagrito, a detector sensitive to very high energy gamma rays, monitored the northern sky from February 1997 through May 1998. With a large field of view and a high duty cycle, th…
Instrumented Water Tanks can Improve Air Shower Detector Sensitivity
R. Atkins, W. Benbow, D. Berley +40
Previous works have shown that water Cherenkov detectors have superior sensitivity to those of scintillation counters as applied to detecting extensive air showers (EAS). This is i…
Calibration of the Milagro Cosmic Ray Telescope
R. Atkins, W. Benbow, D. Berley +40
The Milagro detector is an air shower array which uses the water Cherenkov technique and is capable of continuously monitoring the sky at energies near 1 TeV. The detector consists…
