> the researchers have a lot of experience performing such measurements
If that is the case I'd hate to see their work in an area where they aren't experienced. Their experiment is amateurish in the extreme, and if an undergrad designed a "measurement" of the kind they performed and "calibrated" it at a fraction of the full power I would fail them.
The quality of the work is cartoonishly bad, to the extent that it would have been less work to do a better job.
