Title: Dark Matter Constraints from a Joint Analysis of Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy Observations with VERITAS

Description:

Ascii tables containing annihilation cross sections limits. These tables contain the results depicted in Figs 5, 8, and the left panel of Fig 7.

Each file contains limits for dark matter annihilation into a given Standard Model final state. Files beginning "limits_combined" are the results of the combined analysis Bootes I, Draco, Ursa Minor, and Segue 1 (red curves in Fig 5) while those beginning "limits_noseg1" are the limits found when Segue 1 is excluded from the combined analysis (blue curves in Fig 5).

Tables have 4 columns:
Mass            Dark matter particle mass

-1 sig(syst)    "-1 sigma" uncertainty in limit due to dwarf J-profiles
                (lower edge of shaded band in Fig 5, see Sec VD for explanation)

median          Median cross section upper limit (solid/dashed line in Fig 5)

+1 sig (syst)   "+1 sigma" uncertainty in upper limit due to dwarf J-profiles
                (upper edge of shaded band in Fig 5)
