Description

The continuing search for dark matter will run into problems in the medium term future due to the background of neutrinos (especially from the Sun) which acts as a floor on the M-sigma plane beyond which it seems impossible to probe. We ask how far one can improve this situation using detailed energy, time and directional event information.
