Monte Carlo validation of variance formulas

Tag: Implementation,Math,Noise,Physicsadmin @ 11:26 am
My “SNR with pileup …” paper[1] presented a set of theoretical formulas for the noise of NQ and PHA detectors in Tables I and II. I have discussed the individual formulas and Monte Carlo simulations of their validity in past posts in this series. In Section 2.K of the paper, I presented an overall test of the formulas that compared the A-vector component variances with a Monte Carlo simulation of the random detector data processed with a maximum likelihood estimator (MLE). In this post, I expand the discussion in the paper and present code to reproduce Fig. 2.
