Atmo-ecometabolomics: a novel atmospheric particle chemical characterization methodology for ecological research [PDF]
Aerosol particles play important roles in processes controlling the composition of the atmosphere and function of ecosystems. A better understanding of the composition of aerosol particles is beginning to be recognized as critical for ecological research to further comprehend the link between aerosols and ecosystems.

Simulation of Activation Experiments in an Irradiation Stand in the Context of Nuclear Decommissioning [PDF]
Monte Carlo simulations are a valuable tool to determine activated areas in nuclear power plants. This paper describes the simulation of an neutron irradiation stand containing 8 (α,n) sources and polyethylene shielding. The source spectrum of beryllium (
