  • Abstract
    The characteristics of a multianode photomultiplier tube (MAPMT; Hamamatsu R5900-00-M64) with 64 anodes have been studied. We report measurements that include single photoelectron sensitivity, electrical and optical cross-talk, dark count, and gain variation. Environmental test results relevant to use of these devices in space are also presented. The characteristics of the MAPMT make it well suited for detection of light from scintillating fibers as well as other applications.
