sensor
I beleive what you have there is a high voltage spark gap.It looks like maybee a high voltage arc goes between the middle conducter and the sharp pointed front peice.If either one of the conducters are gold plated then the arc would produce gold ions and be picted up by the back or third conducter. if there was something else in nature producing similer ions,even in small amounts it would be added to the ions allready being produced and could be detected,this is all just a thought but the inside of the sensor sure looks like a device to produce a high voltage arc.
