Optical confinement (OC) structures the optical field and amplifies light intensity inside
atmospheric aerosol particles, with major consequences for sunlight-driven aerosol …

To improve the optical diagnostics of soot particles and gain an increased comprehension of
the soot formation and aging mechanisms requires a better understanding of the soot …

We performed a study of the evolution of soot composition and fine structure, ie, maturity
level, in an atmospheric ethylene-air diffusion flame. We used laser-induced incandescence …

We evaluate the sensitivity of the size calibrations of two commercially available, high-
resolution optical particle sizers to changes in aerosol composition and complex refractive …

This paper provides a thorough modeling-based overview of the scattering and radiative
properties of a wide variety of morphologically complex carbonaceous aerosols. Using the …

Flame-generated soot from miniCAST burners is increasingly being used in academia and
industry as engine exhaust soot surrogate for atmospheric studies and instrument …

The formation of black carbon fractal aggregates (BCFAs) from combustion and subsequent
ageing involves several stages resulting in modifications of particle size, morphology, and …

Recent years have seen an increase in the use of wood for energy production of over 30%,
and this trend is expected to continue due to the current energy crisis and geopolitical …

Biomass burning (BB) fractions estimated with the aethalometer model differ from 0 even for
pure aerosols from fossil fuel (FF) combustion. We used black carbon (BC) aerosols partially …

Light absorption and scattering properties of combustion-generated soot particles are
important to measurement methods and are used as the inputs for climate models. For …
