This review intends to critically assess recent findings related to nucleation and growth of
atmospheric nanoparticles, with an emphasis on the understanding of these processes at a …

Atmospheric nanoparticles are of growing interest to many investigators for two main
reasons. First, nanoparticles are important precursors for the formation of larger particles …

Particle formation in the binary H2SO4‐H2O vapor system was studied at 295 K in a series
of experiments employing a flow reactor. The concentration of H2SO4 was detected by …

Classical theory of binary homogeneous nucleation is extended to the ternary system
H2SO4‐NH3‐H2O. For NH3 mixing ratios exceeding about 1 ppt, the presence of NH3 …

The effects of hydration level and temperature on the nanostructure of an atomistic model of
a Nafion (DuPont) membrane and the vehicular transport of hydronium ions and water …

To determine the types of applications for which plasma-based water treatment (PWT) is
best suited, the treatability of 23 environmental contaminants was assessed through …

Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations were performed to study hydrated Nafion systems
large enough (∼ 2 million atoms,∼ 30 nm box length) to directly observe several …

A new theoretical approach is presented for vapor-phase nucleation. In contrast to previous
molecular approaches to nucleation that focus on evaluating equilibrium distributions of …

The role of the binary nucleation of sulfuric acid in aerosol formation and its implications for
global warming is one of the fundamental unsettled questions in atmospheric chemistry. We …

First-order rate coefficients for the wall loss of H2SO4 were measured as a function of
relative humidity in a high-pressure laminar flow tube in conjunction with chemical ionization …
