This paper discusses the reversibility of gas‐particle partitioning in secondary organic
aerosol (SOA) formed from α‐pinene ozonolysis in a smog chamber. Previously, phase …

Most chemical transport models assume instantaneous equilibrium to represent gas-particle
partitioning of semivolatile organic aerosol. This approach has been challenged by recent …

Traditional yield curve analysis shows that semi-volatile organic compounds are a major
component of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs). We investigated the volatility distribution …

Atmospheric models of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) typically assume organic species
form a well-mixed phase. As a result, partitioning of semivolatile oxidation products into the …

Gas-particle partitioning theory is widely used in atmospheric models to predict organic
aerosol loadings. This theory predicts that secondary organic aerosol (SOA) yield of an …

Secondary organic aerosols (SOA) forms a major fraction of organic aerosols in the
atmosphere. Knowledge of SOA properties that affect their dynamics in the atmosphere is …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) plays a central role in air pollution and climate. However,
the description of the sources and mechanisms leading to SOA is elusive despite decades of …

Water vapor uptake to particles could potentially affect organic‐aerosol mass in three ways:
first, water in the organic phase could reduce organic (equilibrium) partial pressures …

Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA) affects atmospheric composition, air quality and radiative
transfer, however major difficulties are encountered in the development of reliable models …

The yield of particle mass in secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formed by dark ozonolysis
was measured for 0.3–22.8 ppbv of reacted α-pinene. Most experiments were conducted …
