DEFINITION

Classification: 73/514.19

Radiant energy sensor (e.g., optical, charged, or radioactive particle):

(under subclass 514.17) Subject matter wherein the output signal of the sensing means changes in response to detecting (a) light, (b) charged particles, or (c) an alpha, beta, or gamma particles due to the change in a property of the inertial member caused by an acceleration of the body.
