 note = {We try to establish a universal description for the response curve (i.e.,relation between the track registration sensitivity and a physical parameters) of polyethylene terephthalate(PET) as a polymeric nuclear track detector. To do so, we adopt a newly developed physical concept Radial Electron Fluence around Ion Tracks (REFIT) using a Monte Carlo simulationin Geant4-DNA, which has been defined as the number of secondary electron spassing  through a cylindrical surface that is co-axial to the ion path. We find 11% disagreement for the description of the detection thresholds, from which etch pits start their evolutions when the value of REFIT at a radius of 4.0 nm is used. However, compared to other physical parameters, the REFIT offers improved parameters for the detection thresholds of PET, such as the stopping power, Zeff/β and RELω0=1000 eV. Finally, we discuss future issues affecting implementation of REFIT.},
