A sample detection apparatus for detecting a fluidic sample in a flow cell of a sample separation system, the sample detection apparatus comprising an electromagnetic radiation source having a chamber configured for generating a plasma, and an energy source configured for generating and directing an energy beam towards the plasma for heating the plasma so that the plasma emits primary electromagnetic radiation, and a detection path being arranged in a detection direction, wherein the detection direction is arranged angularly displaced with respect to a propagation direction of the energy beam, so that primary electromagnetic radiation propagating in the detection direction enters the detection path, wherein the detection path comprises an electromagnetic radiation detector configured for detecting secondary electromagnetic radiation being characteristic for the fluidic sample and resulting from an interaction between the fluidic sample and the primary electromagnetic radiation propagating in the detection direction or at least a portion thereof. |
