چکیده
including basic and performance. For example, section 4.1 shows spectral response characteristics of typical photocathodes and also gives the definition of photocathode sensitivity and its measurement procedure. Section 4.2 explains dynode types, structures and typical characteristics. Section 4.3 describes various performance characteristics such as time response, operating stability, sensitivity, uniformity, and signal-to-noise ratio as well as their definitions, measurement procedures and specific product examples. It also provides precautions and suggestions for use. CHAPTER 4 CHARACTERISTICS OF PHOTOMULTIPLIER TUBES

Comparative assessment of the accuracy of maximum likelihood and correlated signal enhancement algorithm positioning methods in gamma camera with large square photomultiplier tubes
Introduction: The gamma cameras, based on scintillation crystal followed by an array of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), play a crucial role in nuclear medicine. The use of square PMTs provides the minimum dead zones in the camera. The camera with square PMTs also reduces the number of PMTs relative to the detection area. Introduction of a positioning algorithm to improve the spat...
متن کاملParameterisation of the angular response of the R1408 Hamamatsu eight-inch photomultiplier tube to be used in the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
This paper describes measurements made on Hamamatsu R1408 8-m. photomultiplier tubes in order to parameterise the cesium bialkali photocathode in terms of a complex refractive index fi and a thickness T. The extracted parameters have been used to predict the angular response of the photomultiplier tubes, and this prediction has been experimentally verified. Measurements were taken on a number o...

Improvement of 20 in. diameter photomultiplier tubes
The quality of the 20 in . photomultiplier tubes (Hamamatsu R1449) has been greatly improved over the required specifications for using them m the 50000 ton imaging water Cherenkov detector, Super-Kamiokande . In particular, the resolution of the timing response for single-photoelectron light has been reduced to 3 ns (1Q width), and a clear single-photoelectron peak can be seen in the pulse hei...
