A heat tone sensor includes a housing with a gas inlet and with a gas outlet as well as a device for generating a gas stream of a gas to be tested between the gas inlet and the gas outlet. A measuring element, around and/or through which the gas stream flows, is configured to catalytically burn at least a portion of the gas stream and to send a measurement signal. The measurement signal indicates a quantity of heat released in the process.

An apparatus and a method are disclosed for measuring a characteristic of an analyte particle. An apparatus for measuring a characteristic of an analyte particle includes a heat flux sensor configured to be maintained at a temperature. The heat flux sensor includes first and second electrical connections, and a top interconnect membrane bridging the first and second electrical connections. The apparatus further includes an emitter configured to eject an analyte particle to cause the analyte particle to collide with the top interconnect membrane of the heat flux sensor.
