1. With the aid of the microcalorimeter, the heat quantities are detected, which arise when a molecule hits a previously cleaned surface in the ultra-high vacuum. The functionality can be compared to that of a motion detector, which also responds to thermal radiation.
2. A gas meter generates gas pulses which contain only 10E13 molecules.
3. The gas is in turn measured by means of a quadrupole mass spectrometer.
