摘要: In real counting systems, there exist dead times, during which the systems cannot correspond to incoming signals. Generally, times are considered fluctuate. this paper a method in order derive probability density function f(s) of fluctuating time s is described. A interval distribution was used f(s). The can become promising tool for investigating mechanism systems. As an example our applied Geiger-Muller counter evaluate its aging effect. >
