Fates and spatial variations of accumulation mode particles in a multi-zone indoor environment during the HOMEChem campaign

We report on significant spatial gradients of accumulation mode particles emitted during the HOMEChem campaign and assess particle loss pathways.

Insights into air pollution chemistry and sulphate formation from nitrous acid (HONO) measurements during haze events in Beijing

We integrate observations of gas phase species and time-resolved aerosol composition to explore observational constraints on the mechanisms responsible for sulphate growth during the onset of haze events in Beijing.

Comprehensive organic emission profiles, secondary organic aerosol production potential, and OH reactivity of domestic fuel combustion in Delhi, India

This study examines the volatility distribution of organic emissions from solid fuel combustion sources from Delhi, India, and examines the chemical drivers of the OH reactivity and the secondary organic aerosol production potential.

Quenching of ketone triplet excited states by atmospheric halides

The photosensitized chemistry of three aromatic ketones (xanthone, flavone, and acetophenone) and also of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) arising from the photo-oxidation of naphthalene was investigated by means of transient absorption spectroscopy.

Evidence for a kinetically controlled burying mechanism for growth of high viscosity secondary organic aerosol

The incorporation of organic nitrates into viscous secondary organic aerosol during particle formation is enhanced relative to expected equilibrium partitioning, and is best described by a kinetically controlled “burying” mechanism.

Highly time resolved chemical characterization of submicron organic aerosols at a polluted urban location

Real time concentrations of non-refractory submicron (NR-PM1) aerosols and Black Carbon (BC) were measured during the late winter period (February–March) in a polluted urban location (Kanpur) of India.
