Microplastics (MPs), defined as plastic fragments smaller than 5 mm, have become so pervasive that they are detectable in ...

The semiconductor manufacturing process involves many steps, including, but not limited to, film deposition, photolithography, etching, and chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). Contamination can ...

LANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. (WHTM) – The American Lung Association’s 2023 State of the Air report shows the Midstate has some ground to make up when talking about particle pollution. “Particle pollution is ...

With low particulate loading common in stack emissions these days, particulate matter measurement can be difficult using traditional techniques. Microscopical measurement of particle-size ...

Physicists have found that an elementary particle called the W boson appears to be 0.1% too heavy — a tiny discrepancy that could foreshadow a huge shift in fundamental physics. The measurement, ...

Long-term high ultrafine particle concentrations in New York state neighborhoods are linked to higher numbers of deaths. That is the key finding of our new research, published in the Journal of ...

Some particle size instruments, known as single particle counters, measure individual particle size, while others measure surface area as a function of particle size. Further instruments measure mass ...
