Considering that Jarrell-Ash made it, and the "hollow cathode"
description, the second tube is probably one that emits spectral
lines of those elements, for calibration of an optical spectrometer.
J-A makes (made) spectrometers and associated equipment.  And that
would say that the first one is indeed probably a PMT or a photodiode
(not solid state ;-).  (My PMT book is at home; can't look it up.)
