**Meet the editor**

Dr Xiao-Ying Yu is as a physical chemist also trained in material science and engineering. Dr Yu has active research in both fundamental and applied fields. In the applied world, she is developing the chemical mixture methodology and applies it to evaluate toxic effects of particles in emergency preparedness and response for the Department of Energy (DOE) complex. Dr Yu is a

member of the DOE TEEL (temporary emergency exposure limit) Advisory Group which is responsible for making recommendations of the widely used TEEL methodology. Of particular relevance to this book, she uses aerosols and tracer gas to study their airborne radioactivity from stack emissions to better understand waste treatment and waste disposal.
