Urban air quality is a major concern in the context of human health since cities are at the same time emission hot spots and home to a large fraction of the world's population. Airborne imaging spectrometers may be a valuable addition to traditional air po ...
In the present study, we present the aerosol optical properties and radiative forcing (RF) of the tropospheric and stratospheric smoke layers, observed by the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) satellite, during the ...
Motivated by the lack of direct evidence with inelastic neutron scattering of the well documented bound state of Heisenberg ferromagnets, we use the time-dependent thermal density matrix renormalization group algorithm to study the temperature dependence o ...
Thermal comfort and discomfort based on the local sensation of different body parts have been an important development in thermal comfort studies from the past decade. The human thermophysiology model can be a handy tool to predict local skin and core temp ...
Fibre optics sensors have been identified as very good candidates for environmental monitoring inside the silicon detectors operated at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. The objective of this dissertation is the development of a Relative Humidity (RH) distribu ...
State-to-state molecule/surface scattering experiments prepare the incident molecules in a specific quantum state and measure the quantum state distribution of the scattered molecules. The comparison of state resolved experiments with theory can serve as s ...
Elevated body temperature (fever) can be a common symptom of a medical condition, such as a viral or bacterial infection, including SARS-CoV-2 or influenza. Non-contact infrared thermometers are able to measure forehead temperature in a timely manner and w ...
We present temperature-dependent (from room temperature to 80 degrees C) absorption spectra of Au/SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) (core diameter: similar to 25 nm) in water in the range from 1.5 to 4.5 eV, which spans the localized surface plasmon reso ...
Chemical recycling of plastics provides more flexibility for materials circulation than landfill disposal or incineration. Intensive research efforts have been devoted to maximizing the efficiency of chemical recycling through catalyst development. The fro ...
