Distortion of photon-correlation functions in detection systems with paralyzable dead-time effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce an analytical model of the influence of paralyzable dead time on registered photon-correlation functions. Distortions of correlation functions in the case of the Poisson point process, the doubly stochastic Poisson point process, and the pairwise point process are calculated. The model permits the analysis of detection systems with constant and random dead times. The results of the analytical model are tested by computer simulation.

Saturation effects in fluorescence correlation spectroscopy
Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) could provide a more useful tool for intracellular studies and biological sample characterization if measurement times could be reduced. While an increase in laser power can enable an autocorrelation function (ACF) with adequate signal-to-noise to be acquired within a shorter measurement time, excitation saturation then leads to distortion of the ACF ...

متن کاملReal-Time intrusion detection alert correlation and attack scenario extraction based on the prerequisite consequence approach
Alert correlation systems attempt to discover the relations among alerts produced by one or more intrusion detection systems to determine the attack scenarios and their main motivations. In this paper a new IDS alert correlation method is proposed that can be used to detect attack scenarios in real-time. The proposed method is based on a causal approach due to the strength of causal methods in ...

In this study, the formation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by chilled goat spermatozoa was measured. Furthermore, the effects of dead spermatozoa on motility characteristics were studied. Fresh collected ejaculates from five Shami bucks were centrifuged and virtually all seminal plasma was removed. A part of the collected spermatozoa was killed by two ways: the first by repe...
متن کاملThe photon counting histogram in fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy with non-ideal photodetectors.
Fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy utilizes the signal fluctuations of single molecules for studying biological processes. Information about the biological system is extracted from the raw data by statistical methods such as used in fluctuation correlation spectroscopy or photon counting histogram (PCH) analysis. Since detectors are never ideal, it is crucial to understand the influence of p...
