FAST-SLOW DIFFERENTIATOR CIRCUIT DESIGN FOR A PROTON SPECTROMETER

Abstract

The fast-slow differentiator circuit for the proton spectrometer developed to measure the radiation environment of the ADVENT satellite orbit has undergone further analysis and design. The design philosophy and electronic circuitry utilized to distinguish the source of light pulses observed by the photomultiplier tube are described. (Author)
