| + | Measurements were stopped early this day because of the need to test new equipment. For all previous tests, we have been using a [http://www.iac.isu.edu/mediawiki/index.php/Coincidence_Counter. counter] placed in the [[Nim bin]] to keep track of coincidence counts but we are now connecting the [[Logic Unit]] into the computer so that the computer will keep track of the counts. We are also working on connecting a unit that will time stamp each count. | ||
