Abstract
COINCIDENCE circuits with resolving times much exceeding 10-6 sec. can be obtained by making use of electron multiplier tubes1. The device shown in the diagram is a modification of the Rossi type circuit. Ultra high-frequency electron tubes, lately developed, have been used. Because of the small inter-electrode capacities, the high mutual conductance and the small coupling resistances (50–100 ohms), the input pulses are not noticeably distorted by valves 1 and 2 and thus reach the grid of valve 3 without appreciable delay.
