Abstract: A dynamic scattering type particle diameter distribution measurement device comprising a light receiving part that receives scattered light emitted from the particle group and that outputs a pulse signal in accordance with a photon number of the received light, a plurality of multibit counters that receives the pulse signal while a gate is open and counts a pulse number, a correlator that obtains auto-correlation data from time series data of the pulse number, and a calculation part that calculates particle diameter distribution based on the auto-correlation data, a gate time changing part that changes gate time once or a plurality of times and a gate time judging part that compares mutually the differences between the maximum value and the minimum value of the auto-correlation data output every time the gate time is changed and judges the gate time corresponding to the maximum difference as a recommended value.
