Description

It is possible to determine the mean concentration of particles within a sample volume through the mean and mean square signal of the measuring system. This determination is possible for particles of an unknown size or when the instrument response is uncalibrated. The results, which will be obtained when there are two independent particle distributions within the same volume, are given and the conditions under which one of the distributions may be neglected are discussed.
