(a) Under the above conditions, for the kth pixel simulate 50 repeat experiments for each of the exposure times ∆T = 100 ms, 500 ms, 1 s, 2 s, 5 s, and 10 s.

Calculate the mean of the data for each exposure time and plot the result as a function of the exposure time.

(b) Calculate the variance of the data for each exposure time and plot the result as a function of the exposure time. Compare this plot with the plot from (a) and comment on the similarities and differences.

(c) Use the results from (a) and (b) to obtain an estimate of the electron-countto-DU conversion factor.
