Descripción
Topics:
- where do we stand: summary of both detectors parameters: energy resolution, angular resolution, background rejection, effective volume/areas...
- calculating effective volume/areas: how we do it
- signal MCs: what we are using
- detailed summary of analysis techniques used by both collaborations
- discussion on the list of sources (pros/cons): Earth, dwarf galaxies, galaxy clusters...
- setting limits (general methods we use and how we include systematics)
- relationship between SD and SI results: how the limits on one affect the other
- halo profiles: what to use (talk by an external expert)
- the DM parameter space after the first round of the LHC and recent direct detection results
- input from our experiments to packages like DarkSusy
- combining analyses
- planned low energy extensions and searches for DM
A first workshop with ANTARES and IceCube was held two years ago in Marseilles:

We'll discuss the status of simulations and measurements on halo profiles, local density, etc. Talks by Gianfranco Gentile, Mattia Fornasa and Sergio Palomares
