Abstract: A detection system with a two-step homogenizing device (1) and with a receiver (42). Viewed in a field direction (54) of a photon field, the homogenizing device (1) is located between a measurement area (44) and the receiver (42). The homogenizing device (1) includes a first diffuser (10) and a second diffuser (12). The first diffuser (10) generates an intermediate photon field from an input photon field. The second diffuser (12) generates an output photon field from the intermediate photon field. The receiver (42) generates signals depending on the incident photon field.

Abstract: An in-situ gas-measuring system (1) includes an IR photon source (10) and an IR photon detector (11). The in-situ gas-measuring system (1) has an expansion chamber (12), at which an optical element (16, 16?, 16?) is arranged. A connection element (13) provides a detachable fluid-communicating connection of the expansion chamber (12) to a gas reaction chamber (2). The IR-photon source (10), the optical element (16, 16?, 16?) and the IR photon detector (11) define an optical measuring path, which extends through the expansion chamber (12). The installation and maintenance of the in-situ gas-measuring system (1) are reduced by the features of the in-situ gas-measuring system (1).
