Global measurements and model calculations show that the complex relationship between the chemistry and climate impact of aerosol particles can be successfully captured by a simple formula. The extent ...

While braking in your car may protect you from accidents and save your life, it could actually be harmful to your health in other ways, new research has found. Particles released into the air as ...

A recent study has uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that the climate effects of new particles in urban areas have been significantly underestimated. Particles play a crucial role in climate ...

Scientists are sounding the alarm over the potential health and environmental impacts of pollution from tire particles. A new study is calling attention to the unique hazards posed by tire particle ...

If you’re superstitious, a black cat in your path is bad luck, even if you keep your distance. Likewise, in quantum physics, particles can feel the influence of magnetic fields that they never come ...

Dispersion paints are mostly used in households for painting walls and ceilings. An interdisciplinary research team from the University of Bayreuth has now analysed the chemical composition of two ...

Microplastics can be so small that they’re invisible to the naked eye, but these tiny fragments loom large in today’s public health landscape. They are virtually everywhere: Microplastics can be ...

Scientists have observed particles forming from the vacuum, revealing how matter may emerge from seemingly empty space.

Researchers performed the state-of-the-art instrumentation at the top of the Beijing Meteorological Tower to investigate the influence of new particles on cloud formation. Particles play a crucial ...
