- This paper briefly presents an order statistic approach to the time distribution of the first detected event after a primary avalanche breakdown from a mixture of correlated and dark counting processes. The well-known order statistic method, commonly used to describe the time resolution of scintillation detectors, is applied to the arrival times of correlated events. The established model of crosstalk as a branching Poisson process is extended to afterpulsing, and correlated events are considered starting from their seeds -- free (de-trapped or diffused) charge carriers capable of triggering secondary avalanche breakdowns. The proposed approach enables the extraction of timing information for delayed crosstalk and afterpulsing events mixed with dark counts and predicts that the distribution of the first arrival time narrows as the number of seeds increases, corresponding to a higher probability of correlated events.
