Single photon counting astronomical spectrophotometer to take advantage of increased information rate obtainable
Counting rate meter compresses a wide range of data values, or decades of current. Silicon planar transistor, operating in the zero collector-base voltage mode, is used as a feedback element in an operational amplifier to obtain the log response.
Soft betas, the internal conversion electrons, and unconverted gamma rays from lead-210 are efficiently detected in a liquid scintillation counting system with efficiency of 97 percent. The counter is interfaced with a multichannel pulse height analyzer. The spectra obtained is stored on paper tape and plotted on an x-y plotter.
Pulse amplitude discriminator is specially designed for nuclear counting applications. At very high rates, the threshold is stable. The output-pulse width and the dead time change negligibly. The unit incorporates a provision for automatic dead-time correction.

Quantum mechanics method for obtaining photocount distribution from optical maser photoelectron counting statistics
Ion counting system is coupled to the last dynode of an Allen-type electron multiplier on the mass analyzer of a double focusing mass spectrometer. This leaves the anode available for an electrometer, making possible simultaneous measurements. Coupling is achieved by a ferrite core transformer and associated circuitry.
