Cyclic volatile methyl siloxanes (cVMSs), which can volatilize into the atmosphere, are active
ingredients in widely used consumer products, thus attracting much attention due to their …

Aerosols emitted from various anthropogenic and natural sources undergo constant
physicochemical transformations in the atmosphere, altering their impacts on health and …

There is substantial evidence that photochemical reactions in the atmosphere cause physico-
chemical transformation of combustion smoke, but how this processing modifies potential …

Aromatic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are an important precursor of secondary
organic aerosol (SOA) in the urban environment. SOA formed from the oxidation of …

Oxidation flow reactors (OFRs) have been extensively used to investigate secondary aerosol
formation of the ambient air or emission sources such as biomass burning or vehicular …

Natural gas usage in the traffic and energy production sectors is a growing trend worldwide;
thus, an assessment of its effects on air quality, human health and climate is required …

Soot particles are the most strongly light-absorbing particles commonly found in the
atmosphere. They are major contributors to the radiative budget of the Earth and to the …

Atmospheric models of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) typically assume organic species
form a well-mixed phase. As a result, partitioning of semivolatile oxidation products into the …

We report the first measurements of HO 2 uptake coefficients, γ, for secondary organic
aerosol (SOA) particles and for the well-studied model compound sucrose which we doped …

Organic acids have primary and secondary sources in the atmosphere, impact ecosystem
health, and are useful metrics for identifying gaps in organic oxidation chemistry through …
