Abstract:

The aerosol size and shape analyzer "Arfa" is described. Its most important characteristic differentiating it from existing analogs is its capability in the presence of only one illumination source to simultaneously record in one plane (in one register) images of each particle corresponding to its projections onto two mutually perpendicular planes, thereby significantly increasing the information content of the measurements. In addition, a considerable simplification of the formation of the count volume is possible.
