No role for neutrons, muons and solar neutrinos in the DAMA annual modulation results

Understand

This paper summarizes in a simple and intuitive way why the neutrons, the muons and the solar neutrinos cannot give any significant contribution to the DAMA annual modulation results.

• A number of these elements have already been presented in individual papers; they are recalled here.
• Afterwards, few simple considerations are summarized which already demonstrate the incorrectness of the claim reported in PRL 113 (2014) 081302.
