Solar Yield: How Air Pollution and Particulate Matter Reduce Power Generation From Solar Panels
Many of the dangers posed by air pollutants like particulate matter are undisputed and well known. But besides these health reasons for doing more toward good air quality, there are also economic reasons: solar yield can be significantly reduced by air pollution and particulate matter — and in two ways at once.

Particulate Matter (PM₁ – PM₁₀): Definition, Causes & Effects
You can't necessarily see particulate matter, but you can smell it. It's light and floats in the air. Yet it poses a health risk, because these tiny particles enter our bodies almost unimpeded and attack lung tissue in particular. We introduce this measured value in detail.

Measuring Particulate Matter: What Radioactive Fallout Has to Do with Fine Dust
Russia recently presented the Kinzhal hypersonic missile, which can potentially be equipped with a nuclear warhead. The USA and other countries likewise regularly conduct missile or even nuclear tests — to demonstrate their destructive potential and thereby deter adversaries.

New Year's Particulate Matter: air-Q Measures Sharply Elevated Levels in Leipzig
Particulate matter concentration on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day has been significantly elevated in Leipzig in recent years, even exceeding limit values. The measurement results show, besides the effects of fireworks on New Year's particulate matter, the influence of wood stoves. We explain the health effects and how you can protect yourself.

New Long-Term Study: Particulate Matter Makes People Age Faster
Permanently breathing poor air carries significant health risks that vary by income and gender, according to the central finding of a new study from Imperial College London.

Do Closed Windows Protect Against Particulate Matter?
Exhaust fumes and more pollute our air, often exposing it to particulate matter. The very small diameter of the particles makes this dangerous. This lets the dust enter the airways and affect health. Do closed windows prevent particulate matter from entering a home? We measured it with our air-Q air quality monitor.
