Méthode de mesure des aérosols (...) Si l'on désire obtenir une information sur la distribution granulométrique des particules inférieures à 0,5 [micromètre] on devra travailler à pression réduite, ce qui a pour effet d'augmenter l'inertie apparente de la particule. On a pu ainsi descendre le diamètre de coupure jusqu'à des valeurs de l'ordre de 0,06 [micromètre].
