Characterisation of the Hamamatsu photomultipliers for the KM3NeT Neutrino Telescope
Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-227744
- The Hamamatsu R12199-023-inch photomultiplier tube is the photodetector chosen for the first phase of the KM3NeT neutrino telescope. About 7000 photomultipliers have been characterised for dark count rate, timing spread and spurious pulses. The quantum efficiency, the gain and the peak-to-valley ratio have also been measured for a sub-sample in order to determine parameter values needed as input to numerical simulations of the detector.
