Abstract
Deviations from a Poisson-like distribution of count numbers in the ch annels of lifetime spectra have been reported recently. In this paper, two sources of this anomaly are discussed: fluctuation of the spectru m position on the scale of delays, and nonlinearity of time scale, par ticularly odd-even difference of channel widths in multichannel analys ers.
