    Abstract: In a method for determining at least one physical parameter, a sensor unit which is activated by at least one periodic excitation (1.4) is provided, wherein the sensor unit has at least one detection region in which changes of the parameter in the surroundings of the sensor unit lead to output signal (1.7) from the sensor unit. The sensor unit is wired such that if there are no changes of the parameter in the detection region the output signal (1.7) is a zero signal or virtually a zero signal at the output of the sensor unit, whereas if there are changes of the parameter in the detection region the output signal (1.7) is a signal that is not zero and has a specific amplitude and phase. In a closed control loop, the non-zero signal in the receive path is adjusted to zero using a control signal to achieve an adjusted state even in the presence of changes of the parameter in the detection region. The control signal is evaluated in order to determine the physical parameter. The output signal (1.7) from the sensor unit is reduced substantially to the fundamental wave of the excitation (1.4) and the output signal (1.7) is controlled to zero in the entire phase space by means of at least one pulse width modulation. A temperature-stable, fully digital measuring system is provided as a result of the fact that the at least one pulse width modulation itself generates a correction signal with a variable pulse width and possibly a variable phase which is then added to the output signal (1.7) from the sensor unit and the output signal is thereby controlled to zero in the entire phase space, wherein the pulse width of the correction signal and/or the phase of the correction signal is/are determined by the deviations of the output signal (1.7) from zero.

    Abstract: A combined pumping system comprises a getter pump and an ion pump. The getter and ion pumps are mounted on a same flange and are arranged on the same side of the flange at two different points thereof. The flange can be mounted to a vacuum chamber, such that the combined pumping system evacuates the vacuum chamber.

    Abstract: In a circuit for an ionization vacuum gauge having a thermionic filament, a control circuit receptive of a control current for controlling the filament and a switch for applying the control current to the control circuit, a circuit is provided for indicating a filament interruption independent of the state of the switch. The circuit includes at least one resistor by-passing the switch to provide a continuous sensing current to the filament and a detector for detecting the interruption in the sensing current and for indicating such an interruption.

    Abstract: A mass spectrometer is connected to a vacuum system which includes a vacuum-pumping system and which is communicated with the vessel under test exposed to a suitable probe gas. The vacuum-pumping system consists of a first stage in the form of a mechanical roughing pump for reducing the system pressure to roughing pressure, and a second stage in the form of a highvacuum pump which comprises an electronic getter-ion (sublimation) pump for pumping the chemically active nonnoble gases in combination with a Penning discharge chamber which houses discharge cathodes exposed to the deposit of the getter material from the getter-ion pump for pumping the noble gas.
