=== Proposed Measurement Program ===
# Irradiation with about 40 rem over the course of a few days (source strength selected appropriately)
## periodically acquire an ensemble of pulses in the dark to determine gain, and dark rate
## periodically acquire an ensemble of pulses in the with a pulser to determine gain, and photo-detection efficiency
# Relaxation time of duration determined by the apparent healing rate.
## periodically acquire an ensemble of pulses in the dark to determine gain, and dark rate
## periodically acquire an ensemble of pulses in the with a pulser to determine gain, and photo-detection efficiency
# Repetition of 1. and 2. as desired to determine if complete healing is possible at these doses
# Irradiate the unit for a much longer duration - until some saturation of the performance parameters is seen. This will help determine the offset in the model of the deterioration of performance parameters.
