Abstract
Aircraft observations have revealed ubiquitous new particle formation in the tropical upper troposphere over the Amazon1,2 and the Atlantic and Pacific oceans3,4. Although the vapours involved remain unknown, recent satellite observations have revealed surprisingly high night-time isoprene mixing ratios of up to 1 part per billion by volume (ppbv) in the tropical upper troposphere5.

Molecular Understanding of the Enhancement in Organic Aerosol Mass at High Relative Humidity
/ Surdu, Mihnea ; Lamkaddam, Houssni ; Wang, Dongyu S ; Bell, David M ; Xiao, Mao ; Lee, Chuan Ping ; Li, Dandan ; Caudillo, Lucía ; Marie, Guillaume ; Scholz, Wiebke et al.
The mechanistic pathway by which high relative humidity (RH) affects gas–particle partitioning remains poorly understood, although many studies report increased secondary organic aerosol (SOA) yields at high RH. Here, we use real-time, molecular measurements of both the gas and particle phase to provide a mechanistic understanding of the effect of RH on the partitioning of biogenic oxidized organic molecules (from α-pinene and isoprene) at low temperatures (243 and 263 K) at the CLOUD chamber at CERN. [...]

Atmospheric new particle formation from the CERN CLOUD experiment
/ Kirkby, Jasper (CERN) ; Amorim, António ; Baltensperger, Urs ; Carslaw, Kenneth S ; Christoudias, Theodoros ; Curtius, Joachim ; Donahue, Neil M ; Haddad, Imad El ; Flagan, Richard C ; Gordon, Hamish et al.
Aerosol particles in the atmosphere profoundly influence public health and climate. Ultrafine particles enter the body through the lungs and can translocate to essentially all organs, and they represent a major yet poorly understood health risk. [...]

High Gas-Phase Methanesulfonic Acid Production in the OH-Initiated Oxidation of Dimethyl Sulfide at Low Temperatures
/ Shen, Jiali ; Scholz, Wiebke ; He, Xu-Cheng ; Zhou, Putian ; Marie, Guillaume ; Wang, Mingyi ; Marten, Ruby ; Surdu, Mihnea ; Rörup, Birte ; Baalbaki, Rima et al.
Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) influences climate via cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) formation resulting from its oxidation products (mainly
methanesulfonic acid, MSA, and sulfuric acid, H2SO4). Despite their importance,
accurate prediction of MSA and H2SO4 from DMS oxidation remains
challenging. [...]

Survival of newly formed particles in haze conditions
/ Marten, Ruby (PSI, Villigen) ; Xiao, Mao (PSI, Villigen) ; Rorup, Birte (Helsinki U.) ; Wang, Mingyi (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Kong, Weimeng (Caltech) ; He, Xu-Cheng (Helsinki U.) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Helsinki U.) ; Pfeifer, Joschka (CERN ; Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Marie, Guillaume (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Wang, Dongyu S (PSI, Villigen) et al.
Intense new particle formation events are regularly observed under highly polluted conditions, despite the high loss rates of nucleated clusters. Higher than expected cluster survival probability implies either ineffective scavenging by pre-existing particles or missing growth mechanisms. [...]

Synergistic HNO$_{3}$–H$_{2}$SO$_{4}$–NH$_{3}$ upper tropospheric particle formation
/ Wang, Mingyi ; Xiao, Mao ; Bertozzi, Barbara ; Marie, Guillaume ; Rörup, Birte ; Schulze, Benjamin ; Bardakov, Roman ; He, Xu-Cheng ; Shen, Jiali ; Scholz, Wiebke et al.
New particle formation in the upper free troposphere is a major global source of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). However, the precursor vapours that drive the process are not well understood. [...]

Ice nucleation ability of ammonium sulfate aerosol particles internally mixed with secondary organics
/ Bertozzi, Barbara (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Wagner, Robert (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Song, Junwei (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Höhler, Kristina (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Pfeifer, Joschka (CERN) ; Saathoff, Harald (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Leisner, Thomas (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Möhler, Ottmar (KIT, Karlsruhe)
The abundance of aerosol particles and their ability to catalyze ice nucleation are key parameters to correctly
understand and describe the aerosol indirect effect on the climate. Cirrus clouds strongly influence the Earth’s radiative
budget, but their effect is highly sensitive to their formation
mechanism, which is still poorly understood. [...]

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 [...]

Role of iodine oxoacids in atmospheric aerosol nucleation
/ He, Xu-Cheng (Helsinki U.) ; Tham, Yee Jun (Helsinki U.) ; Dada, Lubna (Helsinki U.) ; Wang, Mingyi (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Finkenzeller, Henning (U. Colorado, Boulder) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Vienna U. ; Helsinki U.) ; Iyer, Siddharth (Tampere U. of Tech.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U., FIAS) ; Kürten, Andreas (Frankfurt U., FIAS) ; Shen, Jiali (Helsinki U.) et al.
Iodic acid (HIO3) is known to form aerosol particles in coastal marine regions, but predicted nucleation and growth rates are lacking. Using the CERN CLOUD (Cosmics Leaving Outdoor Droplets) chamber, we find that the nucleation rates of HIO3 particles are rapid, even exceeding sulfuric acid–ammonia rates under similar conditions.

Intercomparison study and optical asphericity measurements of small ice particles in the CERN CLOUD experiment

Optical probes are frequently used for the detection of microphysical cloud particle properties such as liquid and ice phase, size and morphology. These properties can eventually influence the angular light scattering properties of cirrus clouds as well as the growth and accretion mechanisms of single cloud particles. [...]
