Abstract

A system is described for the determination of scintillation pulse shapes with decay times in the range 10 ns to 100 μs. The current pulse from a photomultiplier tube is gated by electronic circuitry and a summing system has been devised so that the amplitude of pulse at different times may be derived derictly from digital voltmeter readings. A detailed comparison is made with the more generally used single photon time interval analysis method. With slight modification this system could be employed for the measurement of current pulses from other sources such a semiconductor radiation detectors.
