Crime scene lighting devices are used in forensic criminology for illumination and investigation at crime scenes using fluorescence excitation. High radiation powers are required both for white light in the so-called general search and for the criminologically relevant UVA-blue-green range. Moreover, it should be possible for the crime scene investigator to use the forensic lighting device portably and independent from the public power supply. The present disclosure relates to a suitable crime scene light device with a mercury ultra high pressure lamp as the light source, a light guide and terminals for operating the lamp selectively with an accumulator or the public power supply system. A suitable carrier bag, a so-called lorgnette with various longpass filters and a cross-section converter for visualizing shoeprints form useful accessories of the forensic lighting device.

The invention relates to an arrangement in an apparatus for analyzing, on the basis of radiation absorption properties, one or more gas component included in a gaseous medium from an origin, like exhaled air from a person. The apparatus comprises a radiation source (10); a measuring chamber (8) provided with radiation transmissive windows (7a, 7b) for receiving a gas mixture (6) from at least the gaseous medium (G1); a first detector (1), which receives the radiation passed through the gas mixture; and between the radiation source and the detector a first optical interference filter (3), which has a first radiation transmission wavelength band and which is tiltable (P) relative to the passing radiation (R) beam. The arrangement further comprises a second detector (2) directed towards a radiation input surface (5b) of the first interference filter, said second detector receiving momentarily a portion of said radiation (R) as reflected from said radiation input surface (5b) of the first interference filter (3) during the tilt (P) movement.

An instrument for determining the concentration of a particular gas that might be present in a sample has no moving parts and is extremely compact and inexpensive. A novel waveguiding structure serves both as an optical element and as the sample chamber. As an optical element, the waveguiding structure collects radiation from a blackbody source located at the entrance end of the waveguiding structure and conducts the radiation through the waveguiding structure, concentrating it on two infrared detectors mounted at the opposite end of the waveguiding structure. As a sample chamber, the waveguiding structure causes the radiation to undergo multiple reflections that result in the average path length being substantially greater than the physical length of the waveguiding structure. Each of the detectors has its own optical filter, and baffling assures that each detector responds only to radiation which has passed through its filter. One filter defines a spectral passband that coincides with the infrared absorption band of the gas to be measured. The other filter defines a non-absorbing or neutral passband. The electrical signals produced by the detectors are processed to provide a ratio, the value of which is related to the concentration of the particular gas to be detected.

摘要:
Thermally tunable optical sensors are used in sampling tools for analysis of samples from a wellbore. The thermally tunable optical sensors generate a series passbands of wavelength emissions and detect attenuation in a signal thereof. The attenuation detected is processed and used to determine aspects of the samples. Analysis may be completed remotely (outside of the wellbore), within the wellbore (during drilling or otherwise), or as a part of another process such as fluid management, transport and refinement.
