Introduction

DSM check

The purpose of the analysis is to compare various DSM inputs to the corresponding values constructed from Qtdata according to my best understanding of Eleanor's trigger document.

This is the table of statistical requirements for various analyses.  Later I will document here where we came up with the particular numbers.
