Optimal denoising of rotationally invariant rectangular matrices

Florent Gérard Krzakala, Lenka Zdeborová, Emanuele Troiani, Vittorio Erba

In this manuscript we consider denoising of large rectangular matrices: given a noisy observation of a signal matrix, what is the best way of recovering the signal matrix itself? For Gaussian noise and rotationally-invariant signal priors, we completely ch ...

Integrated Aerodynamic/Electrochemical Microsystem for Collection and Detection of Nanogram-level Airborne Bioaccessible Metals

Christian Ludwig, Jian Wang, Jiukai Tang, Tianyu Cen

The soluble fraction of aerosol particulate matter containing trace metals has the potential to engender toxicity and exacerbate the adverse health effects of particulate matter. In this study, an inertial-impaction-based fluidic chip integrated with elect ...

Bulk Heterojunction Organic Semiconductor Photoanodes: Tuning Energy Levels to Optimize Electron Injection

Jun Ho Yum, Kevin Sivula, Nestor Guijarro Carratala, Arvindh Sekar, Liang Yao, Barbara Alexandra Primera Darwich, Yongpeng Liu, Han-Hee Cho, Juan Manuel Moreno Naranjo

The use of a bulk heterojunction of organic semiconductors to drive photoelectrochemical water splitting is an emerging trend; however, the optimum energy levels of the donor and acceptor have not been established for photoanode operation with respect to e ...

Colloidal transport and deposition through dense vegetation

David Andrew Barry, Li Chen, Congrong Yu

The effectiveness of submerged synthetic aquatic vegetation on removal of colloids from flowing water was investigated to explore retention of particulate nonpoint source pollutants in aquatic systems. In colloid transport experiments, the deposition rate ...

Aqueous-phase reactive species formed by fine particulate matter from remote forests and polluted urban air

Andrea Mario Arangio, Ting Zhang, Jing Li

In the aqueous phase, fine particulate matter can form reactive species (RS) that influence the aging, properties, and health effects of atmospheric aerosols. In this study, we explore the RS yields of aerosol samples from a remote forest (Hyytiala, Finlan ...

The influence of chemical composition, aerosol acidity, and metal dissolution on the oxidative potential of fine particulate matter and redox potential of the lung lining fluid

Andrea Mario Arangio, Athanasios Nenes

Air pollution is a major environmental health risk and it contributes to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and excess mortality worldwide. The adverse health effects have been associated with the inhalation of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and indu ...

Historical Changes in Seasonal Aerosol Acidity in the Po Valley (Italy) as Inferred from Fog Water and Aerosol Measurements

Athanasios Nenes, Spyros Pandis

Acidity profoundly affects almost every aspect that shapes the composition of ambient particles and their environmental impact. Thermodynamic analysis of gas-particle composition datasets offers robust estimates of acidity, but they are not available for l ...

Year-long variability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their contribution on winter intense pollution events in the urban environment of Athens, Greece

Maria Apostolaki, Athanasios Nenes

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are organic pollutants with proven mutagenic and carcinogenic potential that originate from incomplete combustion, and partition to fine particulate matter. Nitro-PAHs & oxy-PAHs are oxidation products of PAHs with i ...
