Abstract
The timing property of the BGO-detector for time-of-flight capture cro ss-section measurement was investigated. Several methods were applied to determine the number eta of photoelectrons per energy unit. The tim e response functions of the BGO-detector were measured and calculated. One may achieve reasonable agreement between experimental and theoret ical results if the light output (eta-value) and the pulse shape of th e scintillator are known.
