Abstract
Limits on the neutrino flux for a given mass [Formula presented] and annihilation channel are calculated as in Eq. (7) (page 252), with the integrated acceptances defined in Eq. (8) (page 252) as the effective area averaged over the neutrino energy. A numerical approximation of WIMP annihilation spectra, adapted from [1] with a too coarse binning, led to an overestimation of the integrated acceptances for dark-matter induced neutrino events. The spectra were replaced with a fine-binned version both in the likelihood and in the acceptances. The main change is a weaker limit for WIMP masses larger than 1 TeV/c2. Updated versions of Figs. 3–6 are provided.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
