  • 1GeV at a 5r significance, or, in the absence of a signal, place a 90% c.l.
  • limit at a level of E2 m? Integrating the fitted density functions over the full solid angle shows that the narrower Gaussian accounts for about 44% of the event statistics, the broader Gaussian accounts for 40%, and roughly 16% of the events lie in the tail of the distribution where the track density is not described by a double Gaussian.
  • / Astroparticle Physics 20 (2004) 507 532 5r significance, but we can find the signal strength such that the probability of P5r is close to certainty, e.g., 70%, 90% or 99%.
  • 1sr?1GeV, and the corresponding 90% c.l.
  • average upper limit (dotted), as a function of a cut in channel ...
