Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to irradiance sensing devices and methods. One such device includes a housing and an optical diffuser coupled to the housing. The housing has an opening that extends into the housing from an outer surface, and the opening has a circular shape at the outer surface of the housing. The optical diffuser has a first region that extends at least partially beyond the outer surface of the housing and a second region housed within the housing. The first region of the optical diffuser has a curved surface, and the optical diffuser includes a cavity extending at least partially into the second region.

Abstract: An optical system in which an aggressively compact reflective front end is combined with beam splitting elements and refractive relay optics to allow several imaging systems working in widely different wavelength bands to share a common aperture. The aggressively compact design results in significant field curvature at the uncorrected intermediate or virtual focus, which is corrected in the refractive relay optics for each band's imaging path.

Abstract: Compounds of general formula (I), and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, wherein R1, R2, R3, R5, R6, R8, R9, A, X1, X2, and X3 are defined herein, that may be useful as inductors of type I interferon production, specifically as STING active agents, are provided. Also provided are compositions comprising such compounds, processes for the synthesis of such compounds, and to uses of such compounds, including administration of such compounds to induce immune response, to induce STING-dependent type I interferon production, and/or to treat a cell proliferation disorder, such as cancer.
