Differential Mortality Risks Associated With PM2.5 Components: A Multi-Country,...
Masselot, Pierre; Sera, Francesco; Schneider, Rochelle; Kan, Haidong; Lavigne, Éric; Stafoggia, Massimo; Tobias, Aurelio; Chen, HongBackground: The association between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and mortality widely differs between as well as within countries. Differences in PM2.5 composition can play a role in modifying the effect estimates, but there is little evidence about which components have higher impacts on mortality. Methods: We applied a 2-stage analysis on data collected from 210 locations in 16 countries. In the first stag...
The Breast Size Satisfaction Survey (BSSS): Breast size dissatisfaction and its...
Swami, Viren; Tran, Ulrich S.; Barron, David; Afhami, Reza; Aime, Annie; Almenara, Carlos A.; Dal, Nursel Alp; Soares Amaral, Ana CarolinaMade available in DSpace on 2020-12-10T19:56:52Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-03-01; Hungarian Scientific Research Fund (OTKA); The Breast Size Satisfaction Survey (BSSS) was established to assess women's breast size dissatisfaction and breasted experiences from a cross-national perspective. A total of 18,541 women were recruited from 61 research sites across 40 nations and completed me...
Preparation and characterization of dye-sensitized TiO2 nanorod solar cells
Meng, Lijian; Chen, Hong; Li, Can; Santos, M.P. dosTiO2 nanorodswere prepared by DC reactive magnetron sputtering technique and applied to dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The length of the TiO2 nanorods was varied from 1 μm to 6 μm. The scanning electronmicroscopy images showthat the nanorods are perpendicular to the substrate. Both the X-ray diffraction patterns and Raman scattering results show that the nanorods have an anatase phase; no other phase has b...
Growth of the [110] orientedTiO2 nanorods on ITO substrates by sputtering techn...
Meng, Lijian; Chen, Hong; Li, Can; Dos Santos, Manuel PereiraTiO2 films have been deposited on ITO substrates by DC reactive magnetron sputtering technique. It has been found that the sputtering pressure is a very important parameter for the structure of the deposited TiO2 films. When the pressure is lower than 1 Pa, the deposited film has a dense structure and shows a preferred orientation along the [101] direction. However, the nanorod structure has been obtained as th...

Vibrational Relaxation of Highly Vibrationally Excited O3 in Collisions with OH
Zhang, Lei; Luo, Pingya; Huang, Zhiyu; Chen, Hong; Varandas, António J. C.We report a theoretical study of highly excited O3 in collisions with vibrationally cold OH. Special emphasis is placed on initial vibrational energies of O3 between 9 and 21 kcal mol−1. All calculations have employed the quasiclassical trajectory method and the realistic double many-body expansion potential energy surface for HO4(2A). Many aspects of the title relaxation process are presented. The results indi...
