  • Abstract
    The quantum efficiency (QE) curves of five Philips XP2020Q photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) and one Hamamatsu R2059 PMT were determined using a calibrated Thorn EMI 9426 PMT as a reference. A study of the absolute light yield of a pure BaF2 crystal as a function of wavelength and time is presented
