The observed DGMF is a metric for the instantaneous clump-formation efficiency (CFE) in the molecular gas and a two-dimensional power-spectrum analysis of the DGMF reveals a break in slope at the approximate size scale of molecular clouds.

Subsequently, with a re-imaging lens and a black body point source, the beams of every detector are mapped, obtaining a mean FWHM size of $\sim$3. 27 mm, close to the expected 3. 1 mm.
