Likelihoods for the CTA sensitivity to a dark matter signal from the Galactic centre (A. Acharyya et al., [arXiv:2007.16129])

<p>We present likelihoods to estimate upper limits on DM pair-annihilation in the Galactic centre, based on&nbsp; the<br> Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) consortium publication &quot;Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array to a<br> dark matter signal from the Galactic centre&quot; [arXiv:2007.16129]. As explained in more detail in Sec. 5.2 of that<br> article, these likelihoods are suitable for models featuring cuspy dark matter profiles and generic gamma-ray<br> spectra produced from annihilating dark matter.</p> <p>The four files contain likelihoods that have been derived with respect to the full CTA South baseline array layout<br> and the initial construction phase of CTA South. For each of these two cases, as indicated by the filename, we<br> provide tables with and without the inclusion of systematic uncertainties (where the former refers to the benchmark<br> treatment of systematic uncertainties as described in the main publication). Further, all likelihoods are based on the<br> benchmark analysis settings with respect to masking known bright gamma-ray sources and the adopted<br> interstellar emission models.</p>
