BEGUTACHTETE FACHPUBLIKATIONEN

2025

📄 Comparison of PM Source Profiles Identified by Different Techniques and the Potential of Utilizing Single-Particle Analysis Data in Source Apportionment
Authors: In collaboration with PSI (Switzerland), Demokritos (Greece), IGE (France), IDAEA-CSIC (Spain), and Gradiom (Switzerland)
Journal/Platform: SSRN preprint, 2024
Summary: This study compares and cross-validates PM coarse source profiles from bulk PMF analysis with single-particle ASPA-MC2®. It shows how combining both techniques improves source identification and has the  potential of strengthening PMF result for primary particles.
