Densitometer system for liquid hydrogen has high accuracy, fast response

Developmental densitometer system for cryogenic liquids uses two balanced ionization chambers containing xenon gas, with X rays as the radiation source. The X rays are heavily filtered with a lead shield to make the energy spectrum much less dependent on the voltage applied to the X ray tube.

Twin helix system produces fast scan in infrared detector

Two rotating wheels in orthogonal relationship with helicoidal reflecting surfaces mounted on their outer rims achieve a linear speed without normal time loss in their return motion. The pitch of the helicoidal surfaces equals the displacement that the mirrors must traverse.

Heater control circuit provides both fast and proportional control

Proportional control circuit supplies a heater with full current, from a pulsating dc source, to a present temperature and then switches to proportional control for fine temperature regulation. Two resistors and a diode are added to the existing circuit. The circuit can be adapted to control other functions.
