Abstract
An investigation is made of the rate at which the number of counts in consecutive sample times in a photon counting experiment is found to lie on either side of a fixed level. The same method is used to generalise the conventional theory of zero-crossings of an analogue signal to include finite processing bandwidth. In this case the resulting formulae are applicable to certain situations of practical importance, such as the Lorentzian spectrum, which have previously given singular results.
