Newland 1 University of Iowa, Iowa City, USA 2 Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey Abstract We have measured the specifications proposed by the CMS-HCAL committee on the candidate phototubes from the three major manufacturers; Hamamatsu, EMI and Photonis. In this report, we present the results from those measurements and we outline the future measurements for the test and the quality control as well as the design of the new University of Iowa PMT test station facility.

3. Tasks of the Test System For one tube in every batch: Double-pulse linearity, Gain vs HV for each batch Single photoelectron spectrum X-Y scan (spatial uniformity) Lifetime For each tube: Pulse width Pulse rise time Transit time Transit time spread Anode dark current Relative gain coupled with cathode sensitivity, Pulse linearity Quality control decision on each tube.

14. Definition of Relative Gain and Gain Relative Gain (Normalized Output): Anode output of a PMT when exposed to the same light intensity (±2%) as the Reference PMT and normalized with respect to the output of the Reference PMT For each PMT, Reference PMT is also tested. Gain: Anode output current / Cathode output current

15. Relative Gain vs Gain CONCLUSION: We can sort pmts w.r.t. their Relative Gain values

16. Gain vs HV for Relative Gain %50-%70

17. Gain vs HV for Relative Gain %70-%80

18. Gain vs HV for Relative Gain %80-%90

19. Relative QE This calculation is done on only 120 PMTs @ 1100V Note: Gain vs HV tests were done for these 120 PMTs beforehand, so the gains of each PMT is known. Output is Relative Gain values (100 for Ref) (Output = Gain * QE)
