Let Zn be the counting measure of particles of generation n, and let Zn(t) be its Laplace transform. We show the convergence of the free energy n-llog Zn(t), large deviation principles, and central limit theorems for the sequence of measures {Zn}, and a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of moments of the limit of the martingale Zn(t)/E[Zn(t)ξ].展开更多

The limiting resolution of a Vernier anode is revealed to be significantly higher than that of a microchannel plate. The relationship between the actual spatial resolution and equivalent noise charge of a detector is established by noise analysis and photon position reconstruction. The theoretical results are demonstrated to be in good agreement with the experimental results for a 1.2 mm pitch Vernier anode.展开更多
