Abstract
We have performed comparative light yield measurements of Hamamatsu multi-channel PMTs and HPDs from HPD. Analysing the observed spectra with the standard method leads to an underestimation of the number of photons, mainly due to backscattering. Subsequently we developed a new formula where this effect is taken into account.
