The understanding of soot formation in combustion processes and the optimization of
practical combustion systems require in situ measurement techniques that can provide …

Soot is responsible for notoriously detrimental effects on human health, air quality, and
global and regional climate. Controlling soot emissions to the atmosphere will require …

Combustion and other high-temperature processes can produce solid aerosol nanoparticles
with complex morphologies, including fractal-like aggregates of primary particles …

We used time-resolved laser-induced incandescence (LII) to compare optical and physical
properties of soot at the edge and in the center of two co-flow diffusion flames in common …

Dimethyl ether (DME) is an alternative fuel with significantly reduced particulate (ie, soot)
emissions. The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and soot formation in pure DME …

We have characterized soot particles measured in situ in a laminar co-flow ethylene-air
diffusion flame using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The analysis includes …

Soot from combustion processes often takes the form of fractal-like aggregates, assembled
of primary particles, both of which obey polydisperse size distributions. In this work, the …

Two-wavelength and two-color laser-induced incandescence (2 λ–2C-LII) was used to study
the absorption properties of three types of cold soot of different maturity from a mini-CAST …

Soot particle surface growth may have a significant impact on aggregation kinetics, particle
morphology, and both aggregate and monomer size distributions. Particularly, the …

An adjusted form of thermionic emission is applied to calculate emitted current from laser-
heated nanoparticles and to interpret time-resolved laser-induced incandescence (TR-LII) …
