    Hi Xiaochao,<br>
    <br>
    The key point for us is how to count the NPE. SDU_3 module light
    yield is about 400 PEs, it's far lower than THU new module (more 700
    PEs). The main reason maybe the define of Gain is different.<br>
    <br>
    The first attached picture is the SP and SK values for my ten PMTs
    which provided by Hamamatsu company, few of them used for our
    detector. The second form puts the sp and sk of Hamamatsu and our
    test result together. <br>
    <br>
    We can find that our GAIN at 1500V is not proportional to Sp/Sk. We
    also provide the voltage for gain at 1E6, 2E6 and 4E6.  We use
    single photon electron method to define the Gain, not Sp/Sk. Which
    method is reasonable?  As we know, most particle experiment use
    single photon electron to define Gain instead of Sp/Sk.<br>
    <br>

                      </div>
                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>There is a slight difference here:  When the
                        curve is linear on the double-log scale, one
                        could have: <br>
                      </div>
                      <div>  gain = a * (HV)^b, where a and b are
                        constants.  Looking at Chendi's data (see the
                        spreadsheet file on the minutes), the value of b
                        seems to be about 8.1, which is likely to be the
                        number of stages for this PMT. In this case, the
                        increase in the gain per dynode is linear with
                        HV, and the total gain is HV raised to the power
                        of number of stages, and thus Chendi's results
                        are reasonable and is consistent with what we
                        expect. <br>
                      </div>
                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>At the meeting JP said what CHendi showed
                        agrees with JP's experience.  He said for the
                        Hall A HRS detectors, when the HV is increased
                        by fixed amount (such as 100V each time), the
                        gain increase by a fixed scaling factor (for
                        example, doubles every 100V).  THis can be
                        either explained using the single log scale
                        function, or a power function as above.<br>
                      </div>
                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>So I think the problem may be elsewhere:<br>
                      </div>
                      <div>1) Can the PMT anode current saturate? <br>
                      </div>
                      <div>2) Can the attenuator that Chendi used behave
                        non-linearly?<br>
                      </div>
                      <div>3) If we do a HV scan for the SDU3 module, is
                        it possible to show the same (weird) behavior?  
                        Can the SDU group do such a scan to prove the
                        method to be valid? (That we should get a fixed
                        Npe for different HV values)?<br>

                          <p>Chendi,</p>
                          <p>I agree with Xiaochao that the Gain-V
                            relation is linearity under double-log axis
                            as shown on the PMT specification sheet, not
                            single-log axis. You should contact with the
                            PMT company to explain why the Gain-V
                            results is not linearity under double-log
                            axis.</p>
                          <p>Your PMT Gain raises much more, it should
                            be the reason the NPE decrease.<br>
