In X-ray spectrometry with
solid state detectors there are serious discrepancies and contradictions in the
X-ray database and X-ray measurements. It is instructional to look at the
scatter of the data in the recent compilation of proton induced experimentalL-shell cross section.

It is quite obvious that
one of the main reasons for the scatter is that the signal-processors are not
supplying the necessary information. The signal from the detector preamplifier
system has contributions from real events, noise triggered events, incompletely
developed pulses, electronic disturbances. These additional processes have
their own time distribution, not necessarily Poisson in nature.
