Molecular clusters are ubiquitous constituents of the ambient atmosphere, that can grow into
larger sizes forming new aerosol particles. The formation and growth of small clusters into …

New particle formation of liquid or solid nanoparticles from gas-phase precursors is a
decisive process in Earth's atmosphere and is considered one of the largest uncertainties in …

Atmospheric aerosols and their effect on clouds are thought to be important for
anthropogenic radiative forcing of the climate, yet remain poorly understood. Globally …

Nucleation of aerosol particles from trace atmospheric vapours is thought to provide up to
half of global cloud condensation nuclei. Aerosols can cause a net cooling of climate by …

Atmospheric nucleation is the dominant source of aerosol particles in the global atmosphere
and an important player in aerosol climatic effects. The key steps of this process occur in the …

Atmospheric new-particle formation affects climate and is one of the least understood
atmospheric aerosol processes. The complexity and variability of the atmosphere has …

New particle formation is globally one of the major sources of aerosol particles and cloud
condensation nuclei. As primary emissions are a minor contributor to particle concentrations …

Fundamental questions remain about the origin of newly formed atmospheric aerosol
particles because data from laboratory measurements have been insufficient to build global …

New particle formation (NPF) is one of the major sources of atmospheric ultrafine particles.
Due to the high aerosol and trace gas concentrations, the mechanism and governing factors …

The most recent developments in the modelling of heating and evaporation of fuel droplets,
the results of which were published in 2014–2017, are reviewed, and the most important …
