Description
We discuss a suitably normalized form of the isospin momentum dependent structure
functions entering in the
spin-dependent elastic neutralino-nucleus cross section.
We compare these functions with the commonly used ones and discuss their advantages:
in particular, these allow in the spin-dependent cross section to factorize the
particle physics degrees of freedom from the momentum transfer dependent nuclear
structure functions as it happens in the spin-independent cross section with the
nuclear form factor.
As an application we propose a scheme that allows to analytically determine the three
elementary cross sections and connect the solutions to the relative sign between the
proton and the neutron spin scattering amplitudes once the measurements of total
event rate from three appropriate targets become available.
