Solar Neutrinos as Background in Direct Dark Matter Searches
arXiv:0809.0785 · doi:10.1063/1.3131532
Abstract
The coherent contribution of all neutrons in neutrino nucleus scattering due to the neutral current is examined considering the boron solar neutrinos. These neutrinos could potentially become a source of background in the future dark matter searches aiming at nucleon cross sections in the region well below the few events per ton per year.
