Norton group meeting 11/2010, David Neff
Comparison of excitation output Hg vs HgXe vs Xe lamp at objective of
TE200 with Optisplit:
justification for 2” optics necessary to efficiently couple Xe lamp to
o-split scope
HgXe lamp Hg lampNo lamp (ambient, lights off in room but fluor lights in main area leaking in through window)
Input optics on HgXe lamp are inferior so do not directly compare absolute intensities. Relative intensities at different wavelength are valid.

Xe lampNo lamp (ambient, room lights off but light leak in window from main room)
Input optics on HgXe and Xe lamp are inferior so do not directly compare absolute intensities. Relative intensities at different wavelength are valid.

notice all the contrast in the Leica images almost make them look 'worse'.
