* Working on QuARC paper:
* Investigating [http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/pbt/wikiData/presentations/2020/LK20200107_LightCalibration.pptx Light calibration of depth-light curves in QuARC]:
** Expanded experimental description and refined data analysis.
** Closer look at calibration procedure.
** Can recover PTW Peakfinder measurements of WET of PMMA sheets in single shot!
** Differences in Birks' constant and Helium curves indicate possible issue with calibration procedure.
** Included radiation hardness and ion beam measurements.
** Will look back in detail at calibration procedure: some artefacts present.
* Focussing on light calibration:
** '''SJ''' suggests running calibration process on quenched PDL curve.
** Differences in calibration method when using single-sided shoot through, double-sided shoot through and relying on simulation.
** Will also look at running calibration on simulated depth light curve.
** Likely due to light detection on only one side coupled with black paint meaning no internal reflection.
