Abstract: A mass spectrometer is disclosed comprising an ion beam attenuator (6) which attenuates an ion beam (1a) repeatedly switching between a zero transmission mode of operation during a time period T1 and a non-zero transmission mode of operation during a time period T 2 . The degree of attenuation of the ion beam can be varied by varying the mark space ratio T 2 /T 1 . The ion beam attenuator (6) may release ions in packets or pulses but the packets or pulses of ions may be converted into a continuous ion beam by a relatively high pressure ion guide or gas collision cell arranged downstream of the ion beam attenuator.

Abstract: Dans un appareil photographique comportant un objectif ou un capteur d'image dont le mouvement latéral dans un support provoque un décalage de l'image visant à compenser tout mouvement indésirable de l'appareil photographique, une surface réfléchissante est utilisée pour réfléchir la lumière et une paire photoémetteur/capteur est utilisée pour illuminer la surface réfléchissante et détecter la lumière qu'elle réfléchit. La surface réfléchissante est placée à proximité d'un bord d'une section support et la paire photoémetteur/capteur est disposée sur une autre section support. Ces sections sont mobiles l'une par rapport à l'autre pour permettre le décalage de l'image. La paire photoémetteur/capteur est positionnée de façon qu'une partie du cône de lumière émis par le photoémetteur frappe la surface réfléchissante et que l'autre partie se propage au-delà du bord de la surface réfléchissante. Le mouvement relatif de la paire photoémetteur/capteur et de la surface réfléchissante modifie la région de la surface réfléchissante illuminée par le photoémetteur, en provoquant ainsi une variation de la quantité de lumière détectée.
