Abstract
A thermal conductivity detector includes at least four detector components that are arranged in receptacles of a thermal conduction block in a circle around a center axis of the thermal conduction block. The thermal conduction block comprises a central portion along the axis, the cross-axial dimensions of the central portion being less than the diameter of the circle. There are at least four equal peripheral portions that are connected solely to the central portion and are separated from each other, each of the peripheral portions carrying one of the detector components.
