Polarizing Test: Files where collected with the polarizer, which is a filter on a rotation stage, illuminated by the Oriel incandescent source via the Spectralon sphere. This has the MOBY Lu Head #42 (MOBY247,LuBot) cleaned and connected to long FO #500. Mike suggested recreating the polarization parameter, P from the SIRREX7 section 7.3.3 and compare with their Table 11 results. The table at the bottom recreates the table 11 from the SIRREX7 paper. The plots of the data below show not polarization effect. The last graph is the fitted polarization parameters M12 and M13 (from Ken documentation).

Polarization Parameter: Calculated using data from FIgures 5 and 6 above. Data was normalized to the PD monitor and to the wavelengths data mean. Before min and maxs where calculated.
