/ 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)]. [...]

The interaction between nitrogen monoxide (NO) and organic peroxy radicals (RO$_{2}$) greatly impacts the formation of highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOM), the key precursors of secondary organic aerosols. It has been thought that HOM production can be significantly suppressed by NO even at low concentrations. [...]

Formation of Highly Oxygenated Organic Molecules from $\alpha$-Pinene Ozonolysis: Chemical Characteristics, Mechanism, and Kinetic Model Development
/ Molteni, Ugo (PSI, Villigen) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U.) ; Heinritzi, Martin (Frankfurt U.) ; Hoyle, Christopher R (PSI, Villigen) ; Bernhammer, Anne-Kathrin (Ionicon GesmbH, Innsbruck) ; Bianchi, Federico (Helsinki U.) ; Breitenlechner, Martin (Innsbruck U.) ; Brilke, Sophia (Frankfurt U.) ; Dias, António (Lisbon U.) ; Duplissy, Jonathan (Helsinki U. ; Helsinki Inst. of Phys.) et al.
Terpenes are emitted by vegetation, and their oxidation in the
atmosphere is an important source of secondary organic aerosol (SOA). A part of
this oxidation can proceed through an autoxidation process, yielding highly
oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs) with low saturation vapor pressure. [...]

Role of iodine oxoacids in atmospheric aerosol nucleation
/ He, Xu-Cheng (Helsinki U.) ; Tham, Yee Jun (Helsinki U.) ; Dada, Lubna (Helsinki U.) ; Wang, Mingyi (Carnegie Mellon U.) ; Finkenzeller, Henning (U. Colorado, Boulder) ; Stolzenburg, Dominik (Vienna U. ; Helsinki U.) ; Iyer, Siddharth (Tampere U. of Tech.) ; Simon, Mario (Frankfurt U., FIAS) ; Kürten, Andreas (Frankfurt U., FIAS) ; Shen, Jiali (Helsinki U.) et al.
Iodic acid (HIO3) is known to form aerosol particles in coastal marine regions, but predicted nucleation and growth rates are lacking. Using the CERN CLOUD (Cosmics Leaving Outdoor Droplets) chamber, we find that the nucleation rates of HIO3 particles are rapid, even exceeding sulfuric acid–ammonia rates under similar conditions.

Multicomponent new particle formation from sulfuric acid, ammonia, and biogenic vapors

A major fraction of atmospheric aerosol particles, which affect both air quality and climate, form from gaseous precursors in the atmosphere. Highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs), formed by oxidation of biogenic volatile organic compounds, are known to participate in particle formation and growth. [...]

Atmospheric oxidation is an important phenomenon which produces large quantities of low-volatility compounds such as sulfuric acid and oxidized organic compounds. Such species may be involved in the nucleation of particles and enhance their subsequent growth to reach the size of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). [...]

Influence of temperature on the molecular composition of ions and charged clusters during pure biogenic nucleation
/ Frege, Carla (PSI, Villigen) ; Ortega, Ismael K ; Rissanen, Matti P ; Praplan, Arnaud P ; Steiner, Gerhard ; Heinritzi, Martin ; Ahonen, Lauri ; Amorim, António ; Bernhammer, Anne-Kathrin ; Bianchi, Federico et al.
It was recently shown by the CERN CLOUD experiment that biogenic highly oxygenated molecules (HOMs) form particles under atmospheric conditions in the absence of sulfuric acid, where ions enhance the nucleation rate by 1–2 orders of magnitude. The biogenic HOMs were produced from ozonolysis of α-pinene at 5 °C. [...]

New particle formation in the sulfuric acid–dimethylamine–water system: reevaluation of CLOUD chamber measurements and comparison to an aerosol nucleation and growth model
/ Kürten, Andreas (Goethe U., Frankfurt (main)) ; Li, Chenxi (Minnesota U.) ; Bianchi, Federico (U. Helsinki (main)) ; Curtius, Joachim (Goethe U., Frankfurt (main)) ; Dias, António (U.

Helsinki (main)) et al.
A recent CLOUD (Cosmics Leaving OUtdoor Droplets) chamber study showed that sulfuric acid and dimethylamine produce new aerosols very efficiently and yield particle formation rates that are compatible with boundary layer observations. These previously published new particle formation (NPF) rates are reanalyzed in the present study with an advanced method. [...]
