/ Caudillo, Lucía (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Surdu, Mihnea (PSI, Villigen) ; Lopez, Brandon (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Wang, Mingyi (Carnegie Mellon U. ; Caltech) ; Thoma, Markus (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Bräkling, Steffen (LLNL, Livermore) ; Buchholz, Angela (Aalto U.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Wagner, Andrea C (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Müller, Tatjana (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U. ; Mainz, Max Planck Inst.) et al.
Currently, the complete chemical characterization of nanoparticles
(< 100 nm) represents an analytical challenge, since these particles
are abundant in number but have negligible mass. Several methods for
particle-phase characterization have been recently developed to better
detect and infer more accurately the sources and fates of sub-100 nm
particles, but a detailed comparison of different approaches is missing.
Here we report on the chemical composition of secondary organic aerosol
(SOA) nanoparticles from experimental studies of α-pinene ozonolysis
at −50, −30, and −10 ∘C and intercompare the results measured by different
techniques. [...]

/ He, Xu-Cheng (Helsinki U. ; Carnegie Mellon U. ; Helsinki Inst. of Phys.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Iyer, Siddharth (Tampere U. of Tech.) ; Xie, Hong-Bin (Shanghai Jiao Tong U.) ; Rörup, Birte (Helsinki U.) ; Shen, Jiali (Helsinki U.) ; Finkenzeller, Henning (Colorado U. ; Colorado U., CIRES) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Helsinki U. ; Vienna U.) ; Zhang, Rongjie (Shanghai Jiao Tong U.) ; Baccarini, Andrea (PSI, Villigen ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) et al.
The main nucleating vapor in the atmosphere is thought to be sulfuric acid (H2SO4), stabilized by ammonia (NH3). However, in marine and polar regions, NH3 is generally low, and H2SO4 is frequently found together with iodine oxoacids [HIOx, i.e., iodic acid (HIO3) and iodous acid (HIO2)]. [...]

NO at low concentration can enhance the formation of highly oxygenated biogenic molecules in the atmosphere

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. [...]

AbstractIodine is a reactive trace element in atmospheric chemistry that destroys ozone and nucleates particles. Iodine emissions have tripled since 1950 and are projected to keep increasing with rising O3 surface concentrations. [...]

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. [...]

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. [...]

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 [...]

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. Colorado, Boulder) ; Fischer, Lukas (Innsbruck U.) ; Ahonen, Lauri R (Helsinki U.) ; Amanatidis, Stavros (Caltech, Pasadena (main)) ; Baalbaki, Rima (Helsinki U.) ; Baccarini, Andrea (PSI, Villigen) et al.
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. [...]
