# A rapid and accurate method of finding light leaks in photomultiplier systems

## TL;DR

This paper introduces a quick, reliable method for detecting light leaks in photomultiplier systems using an audible signal, leveraging standard laboratory equipment for practical and efficient leak identification.

## Contribution

It presents a novel, simple technique that mimics a Geiger counter to identify light leaks in photomultiplier systems rapidly and accurately.

## Key findings

- Effective detection of light leaks using audible signals
- Utilizes common laboratory equipment for practical implementation
- Provides a rapid alternative to traditional methods

## Abstract

A rapid method of finding light leaks in photomultiplier systems is described, in which an audible signal derived from the light level is produced. It uses equipment commonly available in laboratories. In practice it is like using a geiger counter to detect radioactivity.
