Abstract
The author of the comment rightly suggests the improvement of our data-correction method II by taking into account the dead time of the fast channel of the digital electronics. In our paper, we preferred to neglect the dead time of the fast channel since we did not have a reliable measurement of it, but could only estimate it from the trapezoidal filter length. If we compare the nominal value of the slow channel dead time reported in the XIA manual (about 8.2 ms) and the one we have measured from the data (9.1 ms) we find an evident disagreement; thus, we were not completely confident in using the estimated value of 0.8 ms for the fast channel dead time....I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
