[Magnetic properties of indoor dustfall at different heights in Lanzhou]
Abstract:
Environmental magnetic measurements were carried out on the samples of indoor dustfall collected from Qiyun building at different heights in Lanzhou University. The results indicate a high concentration of magnetic minerals in indoor dustfall, dominated by pseudo-single domain (PSD) and multiple domain (MD) ferrimagnetic minerals which are mainly from air pollution. The concentration and granulometry of magnetic minerals decrease with the increase of the height within 24 m near surface. We call it near surface blowing model dominated by low pollution sources. Within 10 m near the top of the building, the concentration and granulometry of magnetic mineral show the synchronous change with the increase of height and that is called building damping model dominated by high pollution sources. The concentration of magnetic minerals can reflect particulate matter pollution in Lanzhou. The results show the pollution is relatively slight from 20-30 m and can provide a scientific basis for atmospheric dust management and improvement at the same time.

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...
