24. The capacitance channel has a resolution of one part in 108 while the temperature channel has a resolution of one part in 105. This and the close spacing between data points leads to scatter in the temperature derivative of ΔL/ L300, that is, most noticeable in smooth regions of the measurement range. Our fitting procedure minimizes this scatter.
