Lifetimes of pre-reactive complexes of peroxy radicals revisited: thermostat effects, temperature dependence and highly oxygenated molecules

Simulated pre-reactive complex lifetime is proportional to experimental measurements of the reactivity of peroxy radicals. This extends to measurements over a range of temperatures.

About this collection

Atmospheric peroxy radicals play a significant role in the formation and degradation of air pollutants. Understanding the chemistry and behaviour of peroxy radicals can help improve air quality models, leading to more accurate predictions of pollution levels and their impacts on human health and the environment. Additionally, peroxy radicals are key intermediates in atmospheric oxidation processes, influencing the atmospheric lifetime of greenhouse gases and contributing to climate change dynamics. This collection highlights the latest impactful research on atmospheric peroxy radical chemistry.
