Scientific paper

The results of recent measurements of the signal-induced noise effects produced in a photomultiplier by very small signals incident upon the cathode are applied to the case of laser radar experiments. The necessary correction to the scattering profiles is shown to have an effect on the final result that depends upon the level at which the laser data is normalized. It is suggested that neglect of this correction may be a factor contributing towards the lack of agreement between aerosol profiles obtained by laser radar and those obtained by other methods.
