The concentration of particles larger than 2.5 nm was measured with an ultrafine condensation particle counter (UCPC). The concentration was corrected for diffusional losses in the inlet based on the neutral cluster and air ion spectrometer (NAIS) size dis ...
We consider the Langevin dynamics of a many-body system of interacting particles in d dimensions, in a very general setting suitable to model several out-of-equilibrium situations, such as liquid and glass rheology, active self-propelled particles, and gla ...
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) and electrorotation (ROT) are two electrokinetic phenomena exploiting nonuniform electric fields to exert a force or torque on biological particles suspended in liquid media. They are widely used in lab-on-chip devices for the manip ...
Nitrate is one of the most abundant inorganic water-soluble ions in fine particulate matter (PM2.5). However, the formation mechanism of nitrate in the ambient atmosphere, especially the impacts of its semivolatility and the various existing forms of nitro ...
We study the electrical conductivity of hot Abelian plasma containing scalar charge carriers in the leading logarithmic order in coupling constant alpha using the Boltzmann kinetic equation. The leading contribution to the collision integral is due to the ...
A growing body of evidence identifies clothing as an important mediator of human exposure to chemicals and particles, which may have public health significance. This paper reviews and critically assesses the state of knowledge regarding how clothing, durin ...
It is known that a one-dimensional quantum particle is localized when subjected to an arbitrarily weak random potential. It is conjectured that localization also occurs for an arbitrarily weak potential generated from the nonlinear skew-shift dynamics: $v_ ...
It was recently argued that SU(3) chains in the p-box symmetric irreducible representation (irrep) exhibit a "Haldane gap" when p is a multiple of 3 and are otherwise gapless [Nucl. Phys. B 924, 508 (2017)]. We extend this argument to the self-conjugate ir ...
Most industrial alloys contain a matrix phase and dispersed second-phase particles. Several thermomechanical processing (TMP) steps are usually needed to produce a final product, during which recrystallization and its related phenomena may take place. Seco ...
Lake Geneva, the largest freshwater lake in Western Europe, is subject to important environmental pressures from its densely populated shores and watershed. To maintain and improve water quality in this lake, as well as in other enclosed or semi‐enclosed b ...
