The extent to which aerosol particles affect the climate depends on how much water the particles can hold in the atmosphere. The capacity to hold water is referred to as hygroscopicity (K) and, in ...

Alpha particles, also known as alpha radiation, are the star players in the game of alpha decay — here's everything you need to know.

This means that particles that emit Čerenkov radiation slow down due to its emission. The second is that the angle that the Čerenkov radiation is emitted at allows us to determine the speed of ...

Scientists believe tanker planes could spray sulfur dioxide aerosol in the upper atmosphere over Earth’s poles to help them refreeze. The temperatures of Earth’s poles could be cooled by about ...

The Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory, located at Arete Capital’s Stawell Gold Mine in Western Victoria, Australia, has received the first transmissions from a muon detector placed 1 ...

Radiation Safety HandbookThe first most important resource for research with radiation is the Radiation Safety Handbook. This document details all critical points necessary to maintain safety in your ...

Lund University Summary: Aerosol researchers have studied the amount of particles we actually emit when we sing, and if we contribute to the increased spread of COVID-19 by singing. Share: FULL STORY ...

Similar problems could result from damage to sperm, said radiation biologist and geneticist Andrew Wyrobek of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, who was not part of the study.

TESTING FOR RADIATION PARTICLES Apart from monitoring water, NEA also examines radiation on land and in the air. So far, all radiation is within natural background levels in soil and seawater ...
