Molecular clusters are ubiquitous constituents of the ambient atmosphere, that can grow into
larger sizes forming new aerosol particles. The formation and growth of small clusters into …

Atmospheric aerosols exert a significant but highly uncertain effect on the global climate,
and roughly half of these particles originate as small clusters formed by collisions between …

Amines are recognized as significant enhancing species on methanesulfonic acid (MSA)-
driven new particle formation (NPF). Monoethanolamine (MEA) has been detected in the …

Atmospheric molecular cluster formation is the first stage toward aerosol particle formation.
Despite intensive progress in recent years, the relative role of different vapors and the …

In atmospheric sulfuric-acid-driven particle formation, bases are able to stabilize the initial
molecular clusters and thus enhance particle formation. The enhancing potential of a …

The abundance and basicity of a stabilizing base have shown to be key factors in sulfuric
acid driven atmospheric new-particle formation. However, since experiments indicate that a …

How secondary aerosols form is critical as aerosols' impact on Earth's climate is one of the
main sources of uncertainty for understanding global warming. The beginning stages for …

We present a computational investigation of the sulfuric acid, glycine, serine, ammonia, and
water system to understand if this system can form prenucleation clusters, which are …

One of the main sources of uncertainty for understanding global warming is understanding
the formation of larger secondary aerosols. The beginning stages start with the formation of …

Iodine-containing clusters are expected to be central to new particle formation (NPF) events
in polar and midlatitude coastal regions. Iodine oxoacids and iodine oxides are observed in …
