A description of a Java program to facilitate data acquisition and analysis using a Tektronix TDS3000 series oscilloscope and applied to micro-channel photo-multiplier tubes is provided. Final report on Summer 2010 ANL student Intern project of Paul Drake. In addition...
A goal of the LAPPD project is to be able to develop advanced MCP-PMT's using simulation to optimize the many parameters. This will require a realistic simulation of each step in the generation of the final digital output, including the...

Analysis of data taken with a 10 um MCP on Tang's transmission line card with 18, 50, 158PEs at Ed May's laser test stand.
In this little note we describe the electrical circuit for the large-area MCP-PMT development, including a scheme for an internal HV distribution. This current string, which is composed of series-resistors with stiffening capacitors, supplies current to the photocathode and micro-channel...
This is an old note, from July 2006, but may have some things of interest. HJF Abstract: One limiting factor in the speed of a 2-inch by 2-inch MCP is the inductance in the path that charge has to flow...
