Dr. Gautam’s research focuses on understanding the complex interactions between aerosol particles and light. The study uses advanced light scattering techniques to characterize the optical properties of different aerosol types. This research aims to push the boundaries of aerosol characterization, advancing both the technology used for monitoring and the understanding of aerosol particle behavior.
