The interaction between nitrogen monoxide (NO) and organic peroxy radicals (RO$_{2}$) greatly impacts the formation of highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOM), the key precursors of secondary organic aerosols. It has been thought that HOM production can be significantly suppressed by NO even at low concentrations. [...]

Molecular characterization of ultrafine particles using extractive electrospray time-of-flight mass spectrometry
/ Surdu, Mihnea (PSI, Villigen) ; Pospisilova, Veronika (PSI, Villigen) ; Xiao, Mao (PSI, Villigen) ; Wang, Mingyi (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Mentler, Bernhard (Innsbruck U.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Vienna U., Dept. Math. ; Helsinki U.) ; Hoyle, Christopher R (PSI, Villigen ; Zurich, ETH) ; Bell, David M (PSI, Villigen) ; Lee, Chuan Ping (PSI, Villigen) et al.
Aerosol particles negatively affect human health while also having climatic relevance due to, for example, their ability to act as cloud condensation nuclei. Ultrafine particles (diameter D$_p$ < 100 nm) typically comprise the largest fraction of the total number concentration, however, their chemical characterization is difficult because of their low mass. [...]

/ Xiao, Mao ; Hoyle, Christopher R ; Dada, Lubna ; Stolzenburg, Dominik ; Kürten, Andreas ; Wang, Mingyi ; Lamkaddam, Houssni ; Garmash, Olga ; Mentler, Bernhard ; Molteni, Ugo et al.
New particle formation (NPF) is a significant
source of atmospheric particles, affecting climate and air
quality. Understanding the mechanisms involved in urban
aerosols is important to develop effective mitigation strategies. [...]

Chemical composition of nanoparticles from α-pinene nucleation and the influence of isoprene and relative humidity at low temperature
/ Caudillo, Lucía (Frankfurt U.) ; Rörup, Birte (Helsinki U.) ; Heinritzi, Martin (Frankfurt U.) ; Marie, Guillaume (Frankfurt U.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U.) ; Wagner, Andrea C (U. Colorado, Boulder) ; Müller, Tatjana (Frankfurt U. ; Mainz, Max Planck Inst.) ; Granzin, Manuel (Frankfurt U.) ; Amorim, Antonio (Lisbon U.) ; Ataei, Farnoush (TROPOS, Leibniz) et al.
Biogenic organic precursors play an important role
in atmospheric new particle formation (NPF). One of the major precursor species is α-pinene, which upon oxidation can
form a suite of products covering a wide range of volatilities.
Highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs) comprise a
fraction of the oxidation products formed [...]

Formation of Highly Oxygenated Organic Molecules from $\alpha$-Pinene Ozonolysis: Chemical Characteristics, Mechanism, and Kinetic Model Development
/ Molteni, Ugo (PSI, Villigen) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U.) ; Heinritzi, Martin (Frankfurt U.) ; Hoyle, Christopher R (PSI, Villigen) ; Bernhammer, Anne-Kathrin (Ionicon GesmbH, Innsbruck) ; Bianchi, Federico (Helsinki U.) ; Breitenlechner, Martin (Innsbruck U.) ; Brilke, Sophia (Frankfurt U.) ; Dias, António (Lisbon U.) ; Duplissy, Jonathan (Helsinki U. ; Helsinki Inst. of Phys.) et al.
Terpenes are emitted by vegetation, and their oxidation in the
atmosphere is an important source of secondary organic aerosol (SOA). A part of
this oxidation can proceed through an autoxidation process, yielding highly
oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs) with low saturation vapor pressure. [...]

Molecular understanding of new-particle formation from $\alpha$-pinene between −50 and +25 °C
/ Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U.) ; Dada, Lubna (Helsinki U.) ; Heinritzi, Martin (Frankfurt U.) ; Scholz, Wiebke (Innsbruck U.) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Vienna U.) ; Fischer, Lukas (Innsbruck U.) ; Wagner, Andrea C (Frankfurt U. ; U. Colorado, Boulder) ; Kürten, Andreas (Frankfurt U.) ; Rörup, Birte (Helsinki U.) ; He, Xu-Cheng (Helsinki U.) et al.
Highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs)
contribute substantially to the formation and growth of atmospheric aerosol particles, which affect air quality, human
health and Earth’s climate. HOMs are formed by rapid, gasphase autoxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
such as α-pinene, the most abundant monoterpene in the atmosphere. [...]

Photo-oxidation of Aromatic Hydrocarbons Produces Low-Volatility Organic Compounds
/ Wang, Mingyi (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Chen, Dexian (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Xiao, Mao (PSI, Villigen) ; Ye, Qing (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Vienna U.) ; Hofbauer, Victoria (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Ye, Penglin (Aerodyne Research, Billerica) ; Vogel, Alexander L (Frankfurt U.) ; Mauldin, Roy L (U. Colorado, Boulder ; Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Amorim, Antonio (Lisbon U.) et al.
To better understand the role of aromatic hydrocarbons in new-particle formation, we measured the particle-phase abundance and volatility of oxidation products following the reaction of aromatic hydrocarbons with OH radicals. For this we used thermal desorption in an iodide-adduct Time-of-Flight Chemical-Ionization Mass Spectrometer equipped with a Filter Inlet for Gases and AEROsols (FIGAERO-ToF-CIMS). [...]

Molecular understanding of the suppression of new-particle formation by isoprene
/ Heinritzi, Martin (Frankfurt U.) ; Dada, Lubna (Helsinki U.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U.) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Vienna U.) ; Wagner, Andrea C (Frankfurt U. ; U.

Nucleation of atmospheric vapours produces more
than half of global cloud condensation nuclei and so has
an important influence on climate. Recent studies show
that monoterpene (C$_{10}$H$_{16}$) oxidation yields highly oxygenated products that can nucleate with or without sulfuric acid. [...]
