+Generally, the time resolutions $\Delta T_{\mathrm{MC}}$ are about  a factor 1.5 better than those obtained 
+from the calibration (section~\ref{sec:cal:timeres}, figure~\ref{fig:time:dep}). This 
+ is understandable since the Monte-Carlo pulses are smaller and 
+further the intrinsic time spread of the photo-multiplier has not been simulated. Moreover, no time resolution offset was 
+simulated, thus the reconstructed time resolutions follow about a $1/\sqrt{N_{\mathrm{phe}}}$\,--\,behaviour over the whole low-gain range.
+The spline extractors level off in contradiction to what has been found with the calibration pulses.
+\par
+In figure~\ref{fig:mc:TimeRes_SlidW}, one can see nicely the effect of the addition of noise to the reconstructed time 
+resolution: While without noise all sliding window extractors with a window size of at least 4~FADC slices show the same time 
+resolution, with added noise, the resolution degrades with larger extraction window sizes. This can be understood by the fact that 
+an extractor covers the whole pulse if integrating at least 4~FADC slices and each additional slice can only be affected by the noise.
