Coincidence Detector

Our coincidence detector has two pulse inputs and one pulse output. When two pulses are presented at the inputs at the same time, an output pulse is generated.

Coincidence circuits are used in nuclear physics experiments, including gamma ray telescopes and quantum entanglement experiments.

History of Coincidence Detection

The concept of the “method of coincidence” was developed by German physicist Walther Bothe in 1929, for which he received the 1954 Nobel Prize in Physics. Bruno Rossi invented the first electronic coincidence circuit in 1930.
