S>In order to profit fully from the extremely brief duration of scintillations in time measurements in the field of nuclear physics, it is necessary to have available high-grain and high-speed photomultipliers. The Dario 56 AVP was designed with tais purpose in mind and the study of its speed of response is detailed. Special methods have been developed and the corresponding control equipment has been manufactured to measure the isochronous defects in the electron paths between the vsnious electrodes. The values calculated by the manufacturer are measured and consist of spread center to edge of the order of 0.5 ns, vaniation of total transit time in the tube less than 0.5 ns, and amplitude at half height of an anode pulse corresponding to a single photoelectron of the order of 2 ns.
