Title: The propagation of noise through streak systems

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6355901

The influence of a streak tube system on the noise properties of the signal is analyzed. The streak system is modeled as a cascade of stochastic amplifiers and a system transfer function for the signal statistics developed in terms of the Z transform of each stage. The output signal variance is calculated from the model and compared with experimental data. 3 refs., 6 figs.
