1. Abstract/big idea
   1. classify radiation as poisson
   2. find general properties of radiation here
   3. estimate and compare behaviour at 1s window size
2. Introduction
   1. idea of Poisson distribution
   2. examples of it
   3. general acceptance of radiation as poisson
3. Methods and Materials
   1. scintillator/pmt for data collection
   2. voltage source to limit at upper level
   3. MATLAB for data analysis
4. Results and Discussion
   1. results for 10ms - 800ms
      1. averages
      2. theoretical standard deviation
      3. data standard deviation
      4. percent error
      5. all above in rad events/sec
   2. calculate events per sec from above
   3. estimate for 1 sec window (2 sec for final)
   4. graphs of everything in probability as a function of number
5. Conclusion
   1. Radiation fits accepted Poisson
   2. able to estimate 1 sec window pretty well
6. Refferences
   1. Gold's Manual?
   2. Taylor's book
   3. Koch's paper
7. Figures to Have
   1. table of all raw data in 10 ms- 800 ms
   2. graph of several as probabilities
   3. graph of several on same to demonstrate spreading
   4. table of 1 sec estimate and real, plus ave, standard deviation etc
   5. graph of function of 1sec versus data
8. Issues and Further Ideas
   1. by itself this lab doesn't have a lot going for it what can I add
   2. estimate both 1 sec and 10 ms?
   3. generate and run off of computer?
   4. estimate and collect data on larger windows down the line, 2 sec 10 sec?
