#' Calibration study of a snow gauge.
#'
#' Data collected from snow gauge that measures snow density using detected gamma photon counts from a radioactive source. Observations of the "gain" (an amplified count) at several known densities of polyethylene blocks to simulate snow were observed.

#' @format A data frame with 90 observations and two variables:

#'    \item{density}{density (grams per cubic centimeter)}
#'    \item{gain}{amplified measurement of gamma photon count}
