Differential mobility analyzer
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-004986
An instrument used to classify airborne particles based on their electrical mobility, which is related to their size and charge. It separates particles by passing them through an electric field and a sheath flow of clean air. This device is commonly employed in atmospheric research to measure the size distribution of aerosols.
