New particle formation (NPF) represents the first step in the complex processes leading to
formation of cloud condensation nuclei. Newly formed nanoparticles affect human health, air …

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 …

Short-lived climate forcers (SLCFs) affect climate and are, in most cases, also air pollutants.
They include aerosols (sulphate, nitrate, ammonium, carbonaceous aerosols, mineral dust …

A list of authors and their affiliations appears at the end of the paper New-particle formation
is a major contributor to urban smog,, but how it occurs in cities is often puzzling. If the …

A key challenge in aerosol pollution studies and climate change assessment is to
understand how atmospheric aerosol particles are initially formed,. Although new particle …

Stay-at-home policies invoked in response to COVID-19 have led to well-publicized drops in
some air pollutants. The extent to which such reductions translate to improved air quality is …

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

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 …

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 …

New particle formation in the Arctic atmosphere is an important source of aerosol particles.
Understanding the processes of Arctic secondary aerosol formation is crucial due to their …
