Abstract

A method of correcting first approximation data obtained from a conventional electrozone particle sensing apparatus includes steps for calculating factors for correcting for binary and tertiary coincidences, from the raw data and from physical characteristics of the sensing equipment, to yield an accurate measure of particle distribution within the sample.
