    "abstract": "An analytical function is derived that exactly describes the amplification\nprocess due to a series of discrete, Poisson-like amplifications like those in\na photo multiplier tube (PMT). A numerical recipe is provided that implements\nthis function as a computer program. It is shown how the program can be used as\nthe core-element of a faster, simplified routine to fit PMT spectra with high\nefficiency. The functionality of the method is demonstrated by fitting both,\nMonte Carlo generated and measured PMT spectra.",
