In this study, we propose a simple method to derive vertically resolved aerosol particle number concentration ( N ) using combined polarimetric and lidar remote sensing observations. This relies on accurate polarimeter retrievals of the fine-mode column-averaged extinction cross section measurements coefficient such as those provided by multiwavelength high spectral resolution lidar. We compare...

The aim of this study was to investigate the particulate dispersion from Kerman Cement Plant. The upwind – downwind method was used to measure particle concentration and a cascade impactor was applied to determine particle size distribution. An Eulerian model, Gaussian plume model and an artificial neural network have been used to compute and predict concentration of PM10 from Ke...

The topic of this thesis is the introduction of two novel methods for using single particle microscopy as a tool for absolute number concentration measurements of Brownian particles. The key idea of both methods is that in order to estimate number concentration, the size of the (three-dimensional) particle detection region has to be estimated. Typically, this size has until now been estimated b...

This article is concerned with the fluctuations and the concentration properties of a general class of discrete generation and mean field particle interpretations of non linear measure valued processes. We combine an original stochastic perturbation analysis with a concentration analysis for triangular arrays of conditionally independent random sequences, which may be of independent interest. U...

Four cyclone concentrators were designed and fabricated to compare their particle separation and concentration behavior, such as the major, minor, outlet, and wall deposition fractions. Two of the cyclone concentrators were the conventional type, with the minor flow tube connected to the particle outlet at the bottom of the cyclone. The others were modified cyclone concentrators with a gap betw...
