Aerosol particles in the atmosphere profoundly influence public health and climate. Ultrafine
particles enter the body through the lungs and can translocate to essentially all organs, and …

New particle formation of liquid or solid nanoparticles from gas-phase precursors is a
decisive process in Earth's atmosphere and is considered one of the largest uncertainties in …

Biogenic vapors form new particles in the atmosphere, affecting global climate. The
contributions of monoterpenes and isoprene to new particle formation (NPF) have been …

Intense and frequent new particle formation (NPF) events have been observed in polluted
urban environments, yet the dominant mechanisms are still under debate. To understand the …

Gas-phase oxygenated organic molecules (OOMs) can contribute substantially to the growth
of newly formed particles. However, the characteristics of OOMs and their contributions to …

Atmospheric new particle formation significantly affects global climate and air quality after
newly formed particles grow above∼ 50 nm. In polluted urban atmospheres with 1–3 orders …

To better understand the role of aromatic hydrocarbons in new-particle formation, we
measured the particle-phase abundance and volatility of oxidation products following the …

China is facing dual pressures to reduce both PM2. 5 and O3 pollution, the crucial
precursors of which are NO x and VOCs. In our study, the role of NO x in both secondary …

The interaction between nitrogen monoxide (NO) and organic peroxy radicals (RO2) greatly
impacts the formation of highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOM), the key precursors of …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA), formed by oxidation of volatile organic compounds,
substantially influence air quality and climate. Highly oxygenated organic molecules …
