Abstract
Results on the ability of a photomultiplier system to resolve time differences are presented in graphic form. The results are presented in parametric form and hence may be applied to a wide variety of scintillator‐photomultiplier combinations, provided the system is reasonably approximated by the model used in this work. In addition to the usual effects included (scintillator lifetime, pulse shape, transit time spread), the model includes the effects of finite risetime in the scintillation process.
