TL;DR: In this article, the response of two different aethalometers (AE10 with white light and AE30 with multi-wavelength capability) to several types of soot was investigated, including diesel soot, spark-generated carbon particles, and mixtures of these soot particles with ammonium sulfate and oxidation products of �pinene.

TL;DR: The microphysical properties of Diesel and spark generator soot were investigated in detail during the AIDA Soot Aerosol Campaign 1999 as discussed by the authors, and the mass specific extinction cross section at λ=450 nm of Diesel soot is 106±05 m 2 g −1 which is almost a factor of two larger than the corresponding value of 57±03 m 2g −1 measured for spark generator SOOT.

TL;DR: In this article, the diameter of the primary particles derived from transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is 6.6±1.7 nm for Palas soot and 22.6 ± 6.0 nm for Diesel soot.

TL;DR: In this article, the scattering and absorption properties of black carbon (BC) particles internally mixed with secondary organic aerosol (SOA) were investigated experimentally at the large aerosol chamber facility AIDA.

TL;DR: In this paper, the deposition mode ice nucleation efficiency of various dust aerosols was investigated at cirrus cloud temperatures between 196 and 223 K using the aerosol and cloud chamber facility AIDA (Aerosol Interaction and Dynamics in the Atmosphere).
