The uniformly most powerful test of statistical significance for counting-type experiments with background
Abstract
In this paper, after a discussion of general properties of statistical tests, we present the construction of the most powerful hypothesis test for determining the existence of a new phenomenon in counting-type experiments where the observed Poisson process is subject to a Poisson distributed background with unknown mean.
