This review presents a glossary and review of terminology used to describe the chemical
and physical processes involved in soot formation and evolution and is intended to aid in …

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 …

The study of soot has long been motivated by its adverse impacts on health and the
environment. However, this combustion knowledge is also relevant to the production of …

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

The soot formation process was investigated in two low pressure premixed methane flames:
a reference sooting flame with equivalence ratio 2.32 and a so called nucleation flame with …

The impact of organic carbon (OC) on the light absorption of soot is determined by discrete
element modeling coupled with the discrete dipole approximation for computing the …

To improve the optical diagnostics of soot particles and gain an increased comprehension of
the soot formation and aging mechanisms requires a better understanding of the soot …

We performed a study of the evolution of soot composition and fine structure, ie, maturity
level, in an atmospheric ethylene-air diffusion flame. We used laser-induced incandescence …

Laser-induced incandescence (LII) measurements were conducted to explore the ability of
LII to detect small soot particles of less than 10 nm in two sooting flat premixed flames of n …
