Requirements

• WIMP spectrum generation modules:
  • wimprates. For generic spectra generation
  • verne. For generating spectra taking into account earth shielding
  • darkelf. For Ge/Si Migdal spectra generation
• Optimizer:
  • multinest. The fastest, but installation can be tricky
  • emcee. Used mostly for validation of the other methods
  • nestle. Fully pythonic, works on all platforms and
  • ultranest. Still in alpha phase but has a lot of nice features

Options

• Multiprocessing
• Earth shielding integration
• Computing cluster utilization
