                in "<em>2017-07-18_calibration_stability_tests.xlsx</em>"
                are the results from today's calibration stability of
                the reflectivity test station. </li>
              <li>In the Excel sheet, there is a table of all the raw
                data for the calibration runs. </li>
              <li>At the end of the data, there are statistics for the
                data.<br>
              </li>
              <li>For the<span data-mce-style="background-color:
                  #ffffff;"> stability test,</span> we turned on the
                lamp source at 8:00AM to allow it to heat up. </li>
              <li>We aligned the test station's optics for a calibration
                run and took data on every hour starting at 10:00AM
                until 4:00PM (total of seven calibration runs). </li>
              <li>After the initial alignment, the dark box was not
                opened and the position of the photodiodes was not
                changed.<br>
              </li>
              <li>The results support that the<span
                  data-mce-style="background-color: #ffffff;">
                  calibration measurements do not vary over the course
                  of a few hours </span>if the test set-up is not
                modified in any way.</li>
              <li><span data-mce-style="background-color: #ffff00;">The
                  calibrations for each wavelength has a calculated
                  error of less than 1%, with the exception of the 300nm
                  wavelenth (highlighted in yellow).</span></li>
              <li>The 300nm-wavelength calibration results from 10:00AM
                are also highlighted in yellow. This measurement seems
                to be the source of the larger error for the 300nm
                wavelength calibration. <br>
              </li>
              <li>Also attached in "<em>all_calibrations.xlsx</em>" is
                data for all calibrations we used for all reflectivity
                tests, including the ones from today.</li>
              <li>The data is arranged in the same way as the stability
                test results with statistics at the end.</li>
              <li>Using all calibration run data, the calculated error
                of the calibration is much higher (~10% to ~17%). This
                most likely is due to the realignment that takes place
                between calibrations and between the testing of mirrors.
                <br>
              </li>
              <li>In conclusion, the calibration does not seem to depend
                on the amount of time the lamp source is on. </li>
              <li>Using the data from all calibrations, the main source
                of error appears to be the realignment of test station
                optics.<br>
