NQ detector statistics

Tag: Math,Noiseadmin @ 10:32 am

Another way to get energy selective data is to measure the total number of counts and their total energy. This may not seem to provide energy-dependent information but if you look at it from the point of view of energy weighting, there is information. We can look at the total counts as the integral of the spectrum multiplied by a constant function of energy, where the constant is one. On the other hand, the total energy is the integral of the spectrum multiplied by the function f(E)=E. This weights the higher energies more than the lower and therefore has different information than the counts. This is actually enough difference to give SNR comparable to two-bin PHA.
