Testing the Breakdown of the Asteroseismic Scaling Relations in Luminous Red Giants by Amanda L. Ash, Marc H. Pinsonneault, Mathieu Vrard, Joel C. Zinn

“…The differences between the radii inferred by these two techniques are too small on the luminous giant branch to account for the inflated seismic radii observed in evolved giant stars. Finally, we find that the F _Δ _ν correction is insensitive to the adopted mixing length, chosen by calibrating the models to observations of T _eff .…”

Analysis of Non-linear Relationship of PM2.5 Mass Concentration with Aerosol Extinction Coefficient and RH in Hefei, China by Yinan Chen, Shiguo Zhang, Yonghua Wu, Kee Yuan, Jian Huang, Dongfeng Shi, Shunxing Hu

“…Next, we evaluated the derived PM2.5 from aerosol extinction with the tapered element oscillating microbalance (TEOM), which independently observed PM2.5 in January 2021; their comparisons indicated good consistency and strong correlation with a linear correlation coefficient of R2 = 0.76. Finally, by applying the analytical function of PM2.5 and aerosol extinction, we obtained the spatial and vertical distribution of PM2.5 from the NASA/CALIPSO-observed aerosol extinction profiles, which showed reasonable agreement and good correlation with the TEOM-measured PM2.5 in several major cities in Anhui Province, China.…”
