Abstract
A photon-counting image acquisition system consisting of photon-counting imaging head, a high frame-frequency CCD camera, an image processor and computer has been developed for the two-dimensional analysis of very low-light-level phenomena. Its sensitivity is 104 higher than that of ordinary intensifiers. The system allows real - time photon - counting imaging and consequent follow - up analysis or processing of very faint images. The excellent performance of this system has-been demonstrated during several experiments.
