Abstract
The performance of the 6BN6 gated‐beam tube as a fast coincidence circuit for short positive pulses is investigated experimentally. Design considerations are discussed and curves of performance are shown. Resolving times better than 3×10−10 second have been observed with pulses from a mercury‐switch pulser. The circuit is simple and reliable in operation. It has been applied to coincidence measurement of pulses from photomultipliers.Keywords
