Normally you calibrate your detector using a gamma source. Your energy scale is therefore correct for electron recoils, but not for quenched nuclear recoils. keVee is just a way to explicitly tell someone that you are using the "electron equivalent" energy scale. You might do that if you have both ER and NR on the same plot. If you knew you only had nuclear recoils, you could also use a keVnr scale (nuclear recoil scale), which you would have to generate by measuring the energy dependent yield of NR compared to ER.

8/11/2014 14:22:048/11 (Monday) Indirect Detection of DM (I)Siegal-Gaskins, Jennifer<σv> seems like a quantity dependent on the environment (it's thermal average and explicitly velocity dependent). Is this correct?

In exclusion plots the thermal relic 3x10^-26 (early universe environment) is compared with <σv> limits coming from GC, dwarfs, etc., i.e. different environments. Why are these numbers comparable?
