Abstract:
During the calibration phase of the photomultiplier tubes (PMT) for the
Double Chooz experiment the PMT response to light with single photoelectron
(SPE) intensity was analysed. With our setup we were able to measure the
combined transit time and charge response of the PMT and therefore we could
deconstruct and analyse all physical effects having an influence on the PMT
signal. Based on this analysis charge and time correlated probability density
functions were developed to include the PMT response in a Monte Carlo
simulation.
