    Abstract: A system of measuring and correcting for distortions in homodyne systems and a method for operating a data processing system to provide an estimate of distortions in homodyne systems are disclosed. The method for operating a data processing system to provide an estimate of a distortion introduced by a homodyne system when the homodyne system processes a time a multi-tone time domain input signal, x(t), to obtain a time domain output signal, y(t) includes receiving a frequency spectrum, X(f), of the multi-tone time domain input signal, x(t) and measuring an output frequency spectrum, Y(f), when the homodyne system operates on x(t). A plurality of parameters of a model that represents a linear frequency response of the homodyne system when operating on X(f) to arrive at Y(f) by fitting the model to Y(f) and X(f) is determined, and the model is applied to X(f) and Y(f) to estimate the distortions.

    Abstract: An ion gauge having a reduced "x-ray limit" and means for measuring that limit. The gauge comprises an ion gauge of the Bayard-Alpert type having a short collector and having means for varying the grid-collector voltage.The "x-ray limit" (i.e. the collector current resulting from x-rays striking the collector) may then be determined by the formula: ##EQU1## where: I.sub.x ="x-ray limit",I.sub.l and I.sub.h =the collector current at the lower and higher grid voltage respectively; and,.alpha.=the ratio of the collector current due to positive ions at the higher voltage to that at the lower voltage.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring, by ionization, the flux of vapour emitted by a substance subjected to vacuum vaporization, whereby a jet is produced within the vapour, and part of the particles contained in the jet are ionized. An essentially uniform magnetic field is produced in a volume crossed by the jet and is directed essentially perpendicularly to the jet, so that a section of the jet is permanently immersed in the magnetic field. The particles contained in a delimited volume situated within this section are ionized through being subjected to the action of at least one pulse of an ionizing radiation, so that the ionized particles constitute a package of ions describing, under the influence of the magnetic field, a circular trajectory. The amplitude of the variable component of the electric influence is measured which the package of ions exercises in the course of its revolutions along the circular trajectory on an electrode situated externally to the trajectory, the amplitude forming the measure of the flux.
