Abstract :
The intensity of the laser-Compton-backscattered photons of the Electrotechnical Laboratory has been measured using the Poisson fitting method. It was shown that pile-up events of the photons were simulated with the Poisson distribution quite well and about 30 photons were generated per laser pulse
