Abstract
This invention provides, e.g., devices for detection of particle concentrations in a vessel in real time from outside the vessel. The device is attached to the vessel so that light from an optic fiber enters a media of the vessel, is scattered by the particles, and the scattered light received by a second optic fiber. The received light is transmitted to a detector, generating a signal to a processor for determination of a particle concentration.
