Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay: 2015 Review

Figure 15

Signal and background (red and gray stacked histograms, resp.,) in the region of interest around for 3 Monte Carlo experiments with the same signal strength (50 counts) and background rate (1 count ), but different energy resolution: (a) 1% FWHM; (b) 3.5% FWHM; (c) 10% FWHM. The signal is distributed normally around , while the background is assumed flat. Figure from [198].
