Abstract
This paper presents a simplified convolution method for use in fitting the
pulse-height spectra obtained by illuminating PbWO4 crystals with standard
laboratory gamma -ray sources in order to determine the light yield of the
crystals used in the construction of a high-energy physics experiment. This
technique improves the speed of fitting the data with little diminution on
the precision of the final result. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All righ
