Abstract
Variance measurements were performed with pairs of semiconductor detectors of different ionization volumes in continuous and pulsed radiation fields. By a statistical analysis the relative variance of the detector was separated from that of the accelerator. The relative variance of the detector signal was shown to be correlated to the detector volume and to the dose per pulse. From the measurements the number of events per pulse within the detector volume was estimated and the number of pulses needed to have a reading with a given precision was estimated.
