A PULSE AMPLITUDE DISTRIBUTION DISTORTION DETECTOR ADAPTED FOR CONNECTION TO A DIFFERENTIAL PULSE HEIGHT ANALYZER HAVING A PLURALITY OF CHANNELS EACH OF WHICH PROVIDES AN OUTPUT THAT IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE NUMBER OF PULSES OF PREDETERMINED AMPLITUDES OCCURRING DURING A PREDETERMINED TIME IN THE SIGNAL SPECTRUM FED TO SAID ANALYZER COMPRISING A FIRST TIME DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFYING MEANS FOR COUPLING TO EACH OF THE PLURALITY OF CHANNELS OF SAID ANALYZER FOR PROVIDING FIRST SIGNALS FOR EACH SUCH CHANNEL OUTPUT INDICATIVE OF THE RATE OF CHANGE OF EACH SUCH OUTPUT, A FIRST SUMMING NETWORK MEANS FOR PROVIDING AN ALGEBRAIC TOTAL OF ALL OF SAID FIRST SIGNALS, A SECOND TIME DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFYING MEANS FOR COUPLING ACROSS PREDETERMINED PAIRS OF SAID PLURALITY OF CHANNEL OUTPUTS OF SAID ANALYZER FOR PROVIDING SECOND SIGNALS INDICATIVE OF THE RATE OF CHANGE OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SAID PREDETERMINED PAIRS OF OUTPUTS, AND A SECOND SUMMINING NETWORK FOR PROVIDING AN ALGEBRAIC TOTAL OF ALL SAID SECOND SIGNALS.
