Similar to a PMT

It looks like a Neutron Monitor is similar to a Photo Multiplier Tube; with the producer amplifying the incoming signal for detection just as a PMT multiplies light into electric current for detection and reproduction. - JeepAssembler (talk) 19:49, 22 June 2009 (UTC)JeepAssembler[reply]

Pictures of the two main types would be great. - Rod57 (talk) 18:22, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
