Vibrational exciton coupling in pure and composite sulfur dioxide aerosols
Abstract
Icy aerosol particles determine weather processes in planetary atmospheres and are discussed as sites of chemical reactions in interstellar dust. One of the interesting ice systems in this context are pure and composite SO2 particles. Vibrational exciton coupling is exploited in the present study to understand the properties of SO2 aerosol particles from their infrared spectroscopic signatures. The condensation to pure SO2 ice particles leads to a partially amorphous structure of the particles, whose
