A Bayesian approach to evaluate confidence intervals in counting experiments with background

Loparco, F. · Mazziotta, M. N.

Original · EN

In this paper we propose a procedure to evaluate Bayesian confidence intervals in counting experiments where both signal and background fluctuations are described by the Poisson statistics. The results obtained when the method is applied to the calculation of upper limits will also be illustrated.
