On particles emitted from mouth 口腔内から発せられた粒子に関して（エアロゾル学会の見解）
Air flow and ventilation or air purifiers are necessary to expel aerosol particles floating in closed spaces!「閉空間に漂うエアロゾル粒子を追い出すには空気の流れと換気・空気清浄機が必要です!」
マスク装着に関して（日本エアロゾル学会）On Mask-wearing
Point-1.「繊維の隙間より小さい粒子はマスクのフィルターを通過する」は間違い “Particles smaller than the fiber gap pass through the filter of the mask” is not accurate
Point-2. 大事なことはマスクのフィルター性能より,マスクの縁と顔表面との隙間からの漏れ（侵入）を少しでもなくすこと。It is important to eliminate the leakage (intrusion) from the gap between the mask edge and the face surface, rather than the filter performance of the mask.

An Electric Field Mill in Koganei Campus. 大気電場多点観測
学芸大学（鴨川研究室）の主催で、レンゴロ研究室は大気電場多点観測ネットワークに協力することになりました。研究の目的としては、多摩地区では落雷や降雹、ゲリラ豪雨を伴った積乱雲が数多く発生することが報告されています。これらの現象は雷雲が作り出す電場の変動と密接な関係があると考えられ、レーダー観測と合わせることで雷雲の電気的な構造を明らかにしていきます。大気電場測定装置を小金井を中心とした半径5km以内の領域に集中展開します。他の設置場所候補として、JAXA筑波宇宙センター、調布航空宇宙センター、調布飛行場があります。Organized by Gakugei University (Kamogawa laboratory),

Does the leaf structure prevent the deposition of aerosols? 葉の構造はエアロゾルの付着を防止する？
Epicuticular “wax” crystals affect distribution of incoming particles on needles (leaf surfaces). Densely distributed “wax” might prevent the deposition of sub-micron particles on the surfaces of needles to retain the function of stomata. スギ（代表的な針葉樹種）の葉表面に人工的に散布されたsub-micronの炭素系粒子の局在を調べた。気孔の機能を保持するために密に分布されたワックスは、気中からの微粒子の付着を防止する役割があるかもしれません。
