“…Kikkawa et al 25 , 26 have calculated the efficiency (normalized mean) of a dead-time-modified photon counter for Lorentzian light and have discussed the dependence of this quantity on spectral parameters. Their results are valid only in the limit where the coherence time is much smaller than the mean time interval between pulses, however, and this is not a useful region [see remarks following Eq.…”

General expressions are obtained for the mean and variance of the number of events in a fixed but arbitrary sampling time for a nonparalyzable dead-time counter. The input is assumed to be a Poisson point process whose rate is a stochastic process, and the dead time is assumed to be small in comparison with the fluctuation time of the driving process. The mean is shown to depend only on the first-order statistics of the rate, whereas the variance is formally shown to depend on both the first-and the second-order statistics of the rate. For the particular process arising in the detection of chaotic light, an explicit expression is obtained for the dependence of the dead-timemodified variance on the power spectrum of the radiation. It is demonstrated that the variance takes on a particularly simple form for chaotic light with Lorentzian and Gaussian spectra. In the regime in which our study is valid, it turns out that the dead-time dependence of the variance is contained in a multiplicative function that is essentially independent of the spectral properties of the light.

“…When the number of photoelectrons per coherence time, T,, is much lower than one and the spectrum of the scattered light is Lorentzian, equation (1) can be written [19] (3) where L(s) is the Laplace transform of g")(t). ( 5 ) and K = -sin(:).…”

A binary mixture of spherical macromolecules in solution is analysed by a quasi-elastic light-scattering experiment for low intensity levels (less than one photoelectron per coherence time). In this situation, the Laplace transform, Qs), of the distribution of the time interval between two consecutive photoelectrons has been measured. The results have been compared with those obtained by the measurement of the second-order correlation function, g''l(r), for the same exoerimental conditions.
