The filter material to analyze particulate matter with Raman or FTIR microspectroscopy plays a vital role. Their simple task is to filter liquids to isolate solids onto filters – but as soon as you ...

AZoMaterials speaks with Bruker about the analytical challenges shaping microplastics research, a rapidly evolving field where reliable, particle-level data is critical. Moving beyond simple polymer ...

In three-dimensional particle physics, elementary particles divide nicely into fermions and bosons. But in lower-dimensions, things aren’t so clear cut. These dimensions host a “third kingdom” of ...

Vehicles in the U.S. are set to release more than one septillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) exhaust emissions particles that could relatively easily be avoided with the use of diesel and gas ...

In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of chemical reactions to producing highly reliable weather forecasts. For now, ...

Plastic particles can enter tea in several different ways - and teabags may play a bigger role than many people realize.

Not many people would voluntarily fly through plumes of smoke emitted from wildfires. But atmospheric scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory do, over and over, ...
