Abstract

In this article, we study in a little more detail the angular kinetic-energy distribution of halo Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and consider two simple modifications with the Solar Galactic orbital velocity in our Monte Carlo simulations of the 3-dimensional WIMP velocity as the first trial of future investigations on distinguishing models of the Galactic structure of Dark Matter particles by using directional direct detection data.
