Upper Limits in the Case That Zero Events are Observed: An Intuitive Solution to the Background Dependence Puzzle
We compare the ``unified approach'' for the estimation of upper limits withan approach based on the Bayes theory, in the special case that no events areobserved. The ``unified approach'' predicts, in this case, an upper limit thatdecreases with the increase in the expected level...
