Photomultiplier evaluation of scintillation performance is considered in the light of its marked dependence on spectral shape effects in the emission spectrum of the scintillator, in photon absorption of cell, reflector and photomultiplier window, and in the photoelectric conversion process. Relative pulse height data indicating gross differences in spectral sensitivity are presented for a group of 132 photomultipliers (types 6292 and 6342). A fluorescent converter for measuring the quantum output of liquid scintillators is described.Six scintillator solutions with fairly evenly spaced mean emission wavelengths from 3360 to 4660 A are evaluated for relative pulse height and relative photon output.Suggestions are presented for desirable methods for measuring the performance of scintillators.
