+===== Targets =====
+  * **MPPC properties**
+    * observe 1pe, 2pe and the corresponding threshold
+    * check the rising/falling time (note the definition of the rising and falling time)
+    * dark count rate with 1pe; 2pe; 3pe
+    * check `pattern` trigger (need calibration?) with coincidence of 2, 3
+      * Use DRS4 waveform generator (or Arduino) for example
+      * Coincidence gate
+  * **Fluorescence lifetime by exciting with UV LED**
+    * Measure rising/falling time with oscilloscope (note the signal size)
+    * Fit with exponential and/or oscilloscope measurement function
+  * **Cosmic muon counter**
+    * calculate the rate with area of detector (size of plastic scintillator)
+    * Scintillator inefficiency (rate of 1,2,4; vs rate of 1,2,3,4)
+    * Muon Signal corresponding to how many P.E?
