Abstract
Calculations of the mean and standard error of the added Cerenkov component
from knock-on electrons for sample counters with refractive indices ranging from n = 1.03
to n = 1.49 are presented. We find that this contribution to the Cerenkov resolution is
significant, but not dominant, for typical detector parameters.
