Large daytime signals of N 2 O 5 and NO 3 inferred at 62 amu in a TD-CIMS: chemical interference or a real atmospheric phenomenon?

TL;DR: In this article, a thermal dissociation chemical ionization mass spectrometer (TD-CIMS) was deployed to an urban site in Hong Kong to measure the sum of N2O5 and NO3 in autumn 2010 based on the signals of NO3− at 62 amu.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of ions in new particle formation in the CLOUD chamber

Robert Wagner, +85 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of ions on the nucleation rates under precisely controlled and atmospherically relevant conditions is quantified using a novel instrument setup consisting of two nanoparticle counters, one of them equipped with an ion filter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular understanding of the suppression of new-particle formation by isoprene

Martin Heinritzi, +104 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that isoprene reduces the yield of highly oxygenated dimers with 19 or 20 carbon atoms, which drive particle nucleation and early growth, while increasing the production of dimers having 14 or 15 carbon atoms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlled Nitric Oxide Production via O(1D) + N2O Reactions for Use in Oxidation Flow Reactor Studies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a new method that is well suited to the characterization of NOx-dependent secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation pathways in oxidation flow reactors, using high-resolution time-of-flight chemical ionization mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-CIMS) measurements with nitrate (NO3−) reagent ion.
