French term or phrase: encombrement

hi,

"d'autres moyens complémentaires de détection peuvent être utilisés à d'autres angles de diffusion, ce qui permet de fournir des informations complémentaires.Le nombre de ces moyens de détection reste toutefois limité par leur encombrement."

Other complementary detection means may be used at other scattering angles, which makes it possible to provide complementary data. The number of these detection means however remains limited by their encombrement.

thank you in advance :)
