Title: Results from a Low-Energy Analysis of the CDMS II Germanium Data


Description: 
The files included in this archive contain all information needed to 
reproduce the results of the CDMS II low-threshold analysis of eight 
germanium detectors.

For each detector, there is a text file named 'detector_data_T#Z#.txt'
which contains the raw exposure (prior to applying acceptance
efficiencies), the recoil energies for the events from that detector
which pass all selection cuts, and the nuclear-recoil acceptance 
efficiencies as a function of recoil energy.  Detectors are labeled by 
their tower number and their location in the stack. For example, the 5th 
detector in the 1st tower is labeled T1Z5.

The recoil-energy range used for this analysis was 2-100 keV.  The
following halo parameters were assumed:

Local WIMP density: 0.3 GeV/cm^3
Characteristic WIMP velocity: 220 km/s
Mean Earth velocity: 232 km/s
Galactic escape velocity: 544 km/s

Total No. of Files: 2
