Journal ArticleDOI
Size Matters More Than Chemistry for Cloud-Nucleating Ability of Aerosol Particles
Ulrike Dusek,Göran Frank,Lea Hildebrandt,Lea Hildebrandt,Joachim Curtius,Johannes Schneider,S. Walter,Duli Chand,Frank Drewnick,Silke S. Hings,D Jung,Stephan Borrmann,Meinrat O. Andreae +12 more
TL;DR: Size-resolved cloud condensation nuclei spectra measured for various aerosol types at a non-urban site in Germany showed that CCN concentrations are mainly determined by the aerosol number size distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
A New Time-of-Flight Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (TOF-AMS)—Instrument Description and First Field Deployment
Frank Drewnick,Silke S. Hings,Peter F. DeCarlo,John T. Jayne,Marc Gonin,Katrin Fuhrer,S. Weimer,Jose L. Jimenez,Kenneth L. Demerjian,Stephan Borrmann,Douglas R. Worsnop +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the development and first field deployment of a new version of the AMS, which is capable of measuring non-refractory aerosol mass concentrations, chemically speciated mass distributions and single particle information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of fine particulate and gas-phase species during the New Year's fireworks 2005 in Mainz, Germany
TL;DR: In this article, the chemical composition and chemically resolved size distributions of fine aerosol particles were measured at high time resolution (5min) with a time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (TOF-AMS) during the New Year's 2005 fireworks in Mainz, central Germany.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerosol quantification with the Aerodyne Aerosol Mass Spectrometer: Detection limits and ionizer background effects
Frank Drewnick,Silke S. Hings,M. R. Alfarra,M. R. Alfarra,André S. H. Prévôt,Stephan Borrmann +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method to continuously determine the detection limits of the AMS analyzers during regular measurements, yielding detection limit (DL) information under various measurement conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of Ambient, Interstitial, and Residual Aerosol Particles on a Mountaintop Site in Central Sweden using an Aerosol Mass Spectrometer and a CVI
Frank Drewnick,Johannes Schneider,Silke S. Hings,N. Hock,Kevin J. Noone,Admir Créso Targino,S. Weimer,Stephan Borrmann +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Aerodyne aerosol mass spectrometer (Q-AMS) was coupled with a counterflow virtual impactor (CVI) for the first time to measure cloud droplet residuals of warm tropospheric clouds on Mt. Areskutan in central Sweden in 2003.
