Saad Shaikh

• Painted 2 pairs of scintillator sheets with Derek.
  • Will collect and measure painted pairs tomorrow.
• Optimised ROOT fitting speed: using Legendre-Gauss integration algorithm and Fumili minimisation.
  • 32 data points: 12Hz with ROOT display and 35-40Hz without. Fitting smooth QB function.
  • Will consolidate new version of fitting into rest of fitting scripts.
  • Will test differences in fit results using Legendre-Gauss/Fumili compared to default GSL/Minuit.
  • Will add regular Bortfeld curve to live fit and output file for GUI.
