Photomultipliers are widely used for registration of weak light signals. They are employed in Cerenkov and scintillation counters, hadron and electromagnetic calorimeters, and a number of other detectors. Selection of a photomultiplier for a specific detector requires careful study of its response. The spectral responses of FEU-84-3, FEU-85, FEU-87, FEU-100, FEU-110, FEU-115, FEU-139, FEU-140, FEU-143, and GFEU-30 photomultipliers are measured. Calculated and experimentally determined photoelectron responses are given for registration of scintillation and Cerenkov radiation.
