Abstract
Aircraft observations have revealed ubiquitous new particle formation in the tropical upper troposphere over the Amazon1,2 and the Atlantic and Pacific oceans3,4. Although the vapours involved remain unknown, recent satellite observations have revealed surprisingly high night-time isoprene mixing ratios of up to 1 part per billion by volume (ppbv) in the tropical upper troposphere5.

Beam Test Performance Studies of CMS Phase-2 Outer Tracker Module Prototypes
/ Tracker Group of the CMS Collaboration
A new tracking detector will be installed as part of the Phase-2 upgrade of the CMS detector for the high-luminosity LHC era. This tracking detector includes the Inner Tracker, equipped with silicon pixel sensor modules, and the Outer Tracker, consisting of modules with two parallel stacked silicon sensors. [...]

An intercomparison study of four different techniques for measuring the chemical composition of nanoparticles
/ Caudillo, Lucía (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Surdu, Mihnea (PSI, Villigen) ; Lopez, Brandon (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Wang, Mingyi (Carnegie Mellon U. ; Caltech) ; Thoma, Markus (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Bräkling, Steffen (LLNL, Livermore) ; Buchholz, Angela (Aalto U.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Wagner, Andrea C (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Müller, Tatjana (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U. ; Mainz, Max Planck Inst.) et al.
Currently, the complete chemical characterization of nanoparticles
(< 100 nm) represents an analytical challenge, since these particles
are abundant in number but have negligible mass. Several methods for
particle-phase characterization have been recently developed to better
detect and infer more accurately the sources and fates of sub-100 nm
particles, but a detailed comparison of different approaches is missing.
Here we report on the chemical composition of secondary organic aerosol
(SOA) nanoparticles from experimental studies of α-pinene ozonolysis
at −50, −30, and −10 ∘C and intercompare the results measured by different
techniques. [...]

Measurement of the collision rate coefficients between atmospheric ions and multiply charged aerosol particles in the CERN CLOUD chamber
/ Pfeifer, Joschka (CERN ; Frankfurt U.) ; Mahfouz, Naser G A (Carnegie Mellon U. ; Princeton U.) ; Schulze, Benjamin C (Caltech) ; Mathot, Serge (CERN) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Helsinki U.) ; Baalbaki, Rima (Helsinki U.) ; Brasseur, Zoé (Helsinki U.) ; Caudillo, Lucia (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Dada, Lubna (PSI, Villigen) ; Granzin, Manuel (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) et al.
Aerosol particles have an important role in Earth's
radiation balance and climate, both directly and indirectly through
aerosol–cloud interactions. Most aerosol particles in the atmosphere are
weakly charged, affecting both their collision rates with ions and neutral
molecules, as well as the rates by which they are scavenged by other aerosol
particles and cloud droplets. [...]

Assessment of Two Advanced Aluminium-Based Metal Matrix Composites for Application to High Energy Physics Detectors

The Outer Tracker of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS), one of the large experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, will consist of about 13,200 modules, each built up of two silicon sensors. The modules and support structures include thousands of parts that contribute to positioning and cooling the sensors during operation at −30 °C. [...]

Iodine oxoacids enhance nucleation of sulfuric acid particles in the atmosphere
/ He, Xu-Cheng (Helsinki U. ; Carnegie Mellon U. ; Helsinki Inst. of Phys.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U., FIAS ; Frankfurt U.) ; Iyer, Siddharth (Tampere U. of Tech.) ; Xie, Hong-Bin (Shanghai Jiao Tong U.) ; Rörup, Birte (Helsinki U.) ; Shen, Jiali (Helsinki U.) ; Finkenzeller, Henning (Colorado U. ; Colorado U., CIRES) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Helsinki U. ; Vienna U.) ; Zhang, Rongjie (Shanghai Jiao Tong U.) ; Baccarini, Andrea (PSI, Villigen ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) et al.
The main nucleating vapor in the atmosphere is thought to be sulfuric acid (H2SO4), stabilized by ammonia (NH3). However, in marine and polar regions, NH3 is generally low, and H2SO4 is frequently found together with iodine oxoacids [HIOx, i.e., iodic acid (HIO3) and iodous acid (HIO2)]. [...]

Evaluation of HPK $n^+$-$p$ planar pixel sensors for the CMS Phase-2 upgrade
/ Tracker Group of the CMS Collaboration
To cope with the challenging environment of the planned high luminosity upgrade
of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), scheduled to start operation in 2029, CMS will replace its entire tracking system. The requirements for the tracker are largely determined by the long operation time of 10~years with an instantaneous peak luminosity of up to
$7.5\times 10^{34}$~cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ in the ultimate performance scenario.
Depending on the radial distance from the interaction point, the silicon sensors will receive a particle fluence corresponding to a non-ionizing energy loss of up to $\Phi_{\text{eq}} = 3.5\times 10^{16}$~cm$^{-2}$. [...]
