Abstract[English]
A method of investigating time varying sample characteristics is disclosed. The method comprises illuminating a sample comprising particles with a light beam, so as to produce scattered light by the interaction of the light beam with the sample, obtaining a measurement of the scattered light over a measurement period that is divided into a plurality of shorter sub-runs, classifying each sub-run, and determining the sample particle characteristic for the sub-runs. The method may further comprise transforming each sub-run prior to classifying each sub-run. Determining the sample particle characteristic for the sub-runs may occur prior to classifying each sub-run. The method may also comprise determining a variation in the sample particle characteristic over time for the sub-runs.[French]
Est divulgué un procédé d'étude de caractéristiques d'échantillons variant dans le temps. Le procédé comprend l'éclairage d'un échantillon comprenant des particules avec un faisceau lumineux, de façon à produire une lumière diffusée par l'interaction du faisceau lumineux avec l'échantillon, l'obtention d'une mesure de la lumière diffusée sur une période de mesure qui est divisée en une pluralité de sous-cycles plus courts, la classification de chaque sous-cycle, et la détermination de la caractéristique de particule d'échantillon pour les sous-cycles. Le procédé peut en outre comprendre la transformation de chaque sous-cycle avant la classification de chaque sous-cycle. La détermination de la caractéristique de particule d'échantillon pour les sous-cycles peut se produire avant la classification de chaque sous-cycle. Le procédé peut également consister à déterminer une variation de la caractéristique de particule d'échantillon dans le temps pour les sous-cycles.
