Stray electric signals

Also, care shall be taken to see that the cables are laid away from areas having stray electrical signals due to heavy currents in the neaiby equipment or strong magnetic fields. Usage of specially shielded cables for such locations is preferable, (shields of aluminium foils or metallic mesh in consultation with vendor)... 

SIT, ISIT. Blooming will occur when diodes are saturated, i.e., signal will spill over to adacent diodes. This is partially reduced by the electrical isolation between adjacent diodes. Another phenomenon with similar results is halation or light reflected back to the photocathode from the target (the photocathode is semi-transparent). This is, in essence, a stray light phenomenon that produces an halo around high intensity spectral lines. 

As mentioned earlier, the basic electrical quantities, current and voltage drop, are measured directly during a pulse e3q>eriment. With respect to the timescale and the resulting electrical pulses during the discharge, different precautions have to be made to avoid stray pick-up. Therefore, all signal lines are... 

Temperature is undeniably the most important property for all calorimetric measurements, because it is the common denominator. Two different techniques for temperature measurements are used for pulse calorimetry contact thermometry (e.g. thermocouples) and radiation thermometry or pyrometry. Because pulse calorimetry is often used to handle and measure liquid materials, non-contact radiation thermometry is far more common in pulse-heating than contact thermometry. Other reasons for non-contact temperature measurement methods include the fast heating rates and temperature gradients (inertia of the thermocouples), difficulties mounting the contact thermometers (good thermal contact needed), and stray pick-up in the thermocouple signal because the sample is electrically self-heated.
