  • Abstract
    A zero-crossing type of discriminator with a very wide dynamic range and a short dead-time is described. When used with a 56 AVP photomultiplier with a linear dynode resistor chain, a light amplitude variation of at least 125:1 may be accommodated. The relative time shift of the output discriminator pulse is then only 200 p.s.
