Abstract :
A possible method for analytically removing the effects of pulse pile-up is described. The theory of pile-up distortion of gamma ray spectra, the least squares fitting procedure, and experience with the experimental computer program SPADE are also covered, along with the effects of normal counting statistics on the unpiling procedure.
