Many measurements in particle and accelerator physics are limited by the time resolution with which individual particles can be detected. This includes particle identification via time-of-flight in major experiments like CDF at Fermilab and Atlas and CMS at the LHC, as well as the measurement of longitudinal variables in accelerator physics experiments. Large-scale systems, such as neutrino detectors, could be significantly improved by inexpensive, large-area photo detectors with resolutions of a few millimeters in space and a few picoseconds in time. Recent innovations make inexpensive, large-area detectors possible, with only minor compromises in spatial and time resolution. The G4beamline program [1] is one of the appropriate tools for simulation of low-energy physics processes. The set of specialized tools - MCPS [2], POISSON-2 [3] and Monte Carlo Simulator was used for numerical study of different photo multipliers.
