+ | This decay is caused by correlation statistics. This happens because you correlate the first arriving photon against a photon at the longer time, which will be an increasingly unlikely event because the earliest stop photons always win and the experiment restarts. | ||

For a trial you will I need the raw data - a pt2 file containing all the photon data - not just the correlated curve. You can record this using the button I highlighted in the attached screenshot. | For a trial you will I need the raw data - a pt2 file containing all the photon data - not just the correlated curve.
