In this graph the measured powers at the left and right of the minimum are in relation to a arbitrary rotation with 0 being perfect perpindicular interception of the polarizers.
This relationship will be important down the road for further Kerr effect calculations. The fit at this time is not completely accurate, I plan to touch it up when a presentation is closer or when I have some down time.

I also graphed a normalized version of minimum approaching data set. However, I am concerned that both of these shapes are not able to fit to our standard Δ p = A*sin2 θ

After a few attempts to fit with excel, I was unsuccessful. I may have to utilize Extrema or Canopy with Python.
