论文摘要
$ cawo_4 $和$ al_2o_3 $是实验搜索稀有事件的实验材料,例如从假设的暗物质粒子中弹出弹性。近年来,实验已经达到了10 eV尺度的核后坐力的检测阈值。在这种能量尺度上,可靠的蒙特卡洛模拟预期背景至关重要。但是,在此能量量表和这些目标上,没有一个公开可用的通用模拟软件包均未验证。最近开始的Eloise项目旨在通过获取实验参考数据,验证针对它们的仿真代码,并在需要时,将代码校准为参考数据。
$CaWO_4$ and $Al_2O_3$ are well-established target materials used by experiments searching for rare events like the elastic scattering off of a hypothetical Dark Matter particle. In recent years, experiments have reached detection thresholds for nuclear recoils at the 10 eV-scale. At this energy scale, a reliable Monte Carlo simulation of the expected background is crucial. However, none of the publicly available general-purpose simulation packages are validated at this energy scale and for these targets. The recently started ELOISE project aims to provide reliable simulations of electromagnetic particle interactions for this use case by obtaining experimental reference data, validating the simulation code against them, and, if needed, calibrating the code to the reference data.
