Multiphase chemistry plays a vital role in the Earth system, climate, and health. Chemical
reactions, mass transport, and phase transitions between gases, liquids, and solids are …

The formation of ice particles in the Earth's atmosphere strongly affects the properties of
clouds and their impact on climate. Despite the importance of ice formation in determining …

Predicting the formation of ice in the atmosphere presents one of the great challenges in
physical sciences with important implications for the chemistry and composition of the …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) accounts for a significant fraction of ambient tropospheric
aerosol and a detailed knowledge of the formation, properties and transformation of SOA is …

Recently, it has been proposed that organic aerosol particles in the atmosphere can exist in
an amorphous semi-solid or solid (ie glassy) state. In this perspective, we analyse and …

Organic substances can adopt an amorphous solid or semisolid state, influencing the rate of
heterogeneous reactions and multiphase processes in atmospheric aerosols. Here we …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) particles are formed in the atmosphere from condensable
oxidation products of anthropogenic and biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) …

We present a new and considerably extended parameterization of the thermodynamic
activity coefficient model AIOMFAC (Aerosol Inorganic-Organic Mixtures Functional groups …

Interactions with water are crucial for the properties, transformation and climate effects of
atmospheric aerosols. Here we present a conceptual framework for the interaction of …

A new process is presented by which water soluble organics might influence ice nucleation,
ice growth, chemical reactions and water uptake of aerosols in the upper troposphere: the …
