Abstract :
We report on studies of the two types of BURLE multi-anode micro-channel plate (MCP) PMTs; one with 64 channels and 25 μm pores and the other with 4 channels and 10 μm pores. Possible applications of these tubes are for RICH detectors and time-of-flight counters. We have investigated their timing properties and cross-talk. The origin of the cross talk between the channels was investigated by studying the correlations between signals on neighboring pads, their amplitudes and time of arrival. We have also studied the influence of cross-talk on timing and spatial resolution.
