论文摘要
本文的目的是引入一个基于新颖的轴承卤素的新型推论框架,该框架在常用的“恢复”方案下是有效的。所提出的方法享有简短的数据采集时间和对检测器配置的简单调整。局部统计显着性和功率是通过分析计算的,避免了对繁重的模拟的需求。还讨论了对查找效果的适当校正。将我们的推论策略的性能与利用扫描的几何概率的简单方法进行了比较。最后,我们用应用于Haystac型轴突悬挂仪的应用来体现该方法。
The goal of this paper is to introduce a novel likelihood-based inferential framework for axion haloscopes which is valid under the commonly applied "rescanning" protocol. The proposed method enjoys short data acquisition times and a simple tuning of the detector configuration. Local statistical significance and power are computed analytically, avoiding the need of burdensome simulations. Adequate corrections for the look-elsewhere effect are also discussed. The performance of our inferential strategy is compared with that of a simple method which exploits the geometric probability of rescan. Finally, we exemplify the method with an application to a HAYSTAC type axion haloscope.
