Caustics in turbulent aerosols [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Networks of caustics can occur in the distribution of particles suspended in a randomly moving gas. These can facilitate coagulation of particles by bringing them into close proximity, even in cases where the trajectories do not coalesce.

A scoping review on bio-aerosols in healthcare and the dental environment

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Background Bio-aerosols originate from different sources and their potentially pathogenic nature may form a hazard to healthcare workers and patients. So far no extensive review on existing evidence regarding bio-aerosols is available.

Cloud Inspired White and Grey Plasmonic Metasurfaces for Camouflaged Thermal Management

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by clouds' role in Earth's thermal management, this work presents disordered plasmonic metasurfaces that mimic their radiative effects. The white metasurface enhances backscattering, acting as a cooling layer with camouflage properties.

Estimating seasonal variations in cloud droplet number concentration over the boreal forest from satellite observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Seasonal variations in cloud droplet number concentration (NCD) in low-level stratiform clouds over the boreal forest are estimated from MODIS observations of cloud optical and microphysical properties, using a sub-adiabatic cloud model to interpret ...

Unperceivable Designs of Wearable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Unperceivable wearable technologies seamlessly integrate into everyone's daily life, for healthcare and Internet‐of‐Things applications. By remaining completely unnoticed both visually and tactilely, by the user and others, they ensure medical privacy and allow natural social interactions.

Carbonaceous Aerosols in the Atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
Scientific understanding of the processes involving carbonaceous aerosols in atmosphere is extremely important for both the climate and human health. This explains the increasing scientific interest in characterising these chemical species [1,2].[...]

The History of Therapeutic Aerosols: A Chronological Review

open access: yesJournal of Aerosol Medicine, 2017
In 1956, Riker Laboratories, Inc., (now 3 M Drug Delivery Systems) introduced the first pressurized metered dose inhaler (MDI). In many respects, the introduction of the MDI marked the beginning of the modern pharmaceutical aerosol industry.

Solution‐Processable Polymer Nanocomposites for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This review introduces scalable strategies for fabricating solution‐processable polymer nanocomposites with improved electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance. It compares three fabrication methods, including solution blending, in situ polymerization, and Pickering emulsion polymerization, and highlights their respective advantages in ...

Aerosols in the mortuary. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Pathology, 1983
Air counts in seven mortuaries during necropsies revealed that providing care is taken with washing intestines and close dissection, bacterial numbers are often less than those found in an operating theatre, and relate more to the number of people and movement in the room than the work.

Black carbon or brown carbon? The nature of light-absorbing carbonaceous aerosols

open access: yes, 2006
Although the definition and measurement techniques for atmospheric "black carbon" ("BC") or "elemental carbon'' ("EC") have long been subjects of scientific controversy, the recent discovery of light-absorbing carbon that is not black ("brown carbon, C ...
