Description

In this talk I will demonstrate how to use the AMIDAS package online for both Monte-Carlo simulations and analyzing (pseudo)data sets to extract properties of halo WIMPs, e.g., the mass and the (ratios between the) spin-independent and spin-dependent couplings/cross sections on nucleons. In order to show the model-independence of the AMIDAS package, a comparison between the blindly reconstructed results and the original (non-standard) input setup for generating both the WIMP signals as well as a small amount of artificially added background events will also be given.
