Abstract:
In recent years, the fine particles suspended in the atmosphere, especially the particle size less than 10 , have caused very adverse effects on the climate environment and human health. However, the current research on the causes of air pollution mainly focuses on human activities and weather conditions. Considering the weak magnetism and chargeability of atmospheric fine particles, this study proposed a new view that space electromagnetic radiation may affect the physical properties of fine particles. We first analyzed the dynamic characteristics of magnetic micro-particle in the electromagnetic environment, and built a simulation model in the COMSOL simulation software. Finally, based on the theoretical analysis and simulation results, we built an experimental verification system to evaluate the effects of electromagnetic radiation on the physical properties of micro-particle, and carried out a 30-day control experiment. The experimental results showed that the physical properties such as particle size distribution, mass concentration, and morphology of suspended fine particles in the atmosphere under electromagnetic radiation are significantly different from those under non-electromagnetic radiation environment. It can be inferred that the aggregation, fusion, and deposition of suspended particles in the atmosphere are closely related to the complex electromagnetic environment in space.
