# Irradiation with about 40 rem over the course of a few days (source strength selected appropriately) with ''full measurement'' performed periodically.
## periodically acquire an ensemble of pulses in the dark to determine gain, and dark rate

# Relaxation time (of duration determined by the apparent healing rate)  with ''full measurement'' performed periodically.
## 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 the recovery extent
# Relaxation time of duration determined by the apparent healing rate.

# 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.
