Using WrightTools, PyCMDS fits each slice to find the delay that gives maximum signal. %
It then passes those separate fits through a spline to guess the ultimate SDC dependence. %
PyCMDS makes a best guess in regions where there is not enough signal to determine the appropriate

The magnitude of the corrections are roughly 30 fs in this particular experiment: not large, but
enough to change signal levels by roughly a factor of 2. %
In other cases SDC is as much as 200 fs. %
