Sulfuric acid represents a fundamental precursor for new nanometre-sized atmospheric
aerosol particles. These particles, after subsequent growth, may influence Earth´ s radiative …

The extensive use of diesel engines has led to significant emissions of pollutants, especially
soot particles, which pose serious risks to both the environment and human health. At …

Polar environments are among the fastest changing regions on the planet. It is a crucial time
to make significant improvements in our understanding of how ocean and ice …

The atmospheric oxidation of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) represents a major natural source of
atmospheric sulfate aerosols. However, there remain large uncertainties in our …

The role of methanesulfonic acid (MSA) in atmospheric new particle formation remains
highly uncertain. Using state-of-the-art computational methods, we study the electrically …

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 …

New particle formation via the ion-mediated sulfuric acid and ammonia molecular clustering
mechanism remains the most widely observed and experimentally verified pathway. Recent …

Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is an important trace gas emitted from the ocean. The oxidation of
DMS has long been recognised as being important for global climate through the role DMS …

Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) influences climate via cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) formation
resulting from its oxidation products (mainly methanesulfonic acid, MSA, and sulfuric acid …

Despite its impact on the climate, the mechanism of methanesulfonic acid (MSA) formation in
the oxidation of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) remains unclear. The DMS+ OH reaction is known to …
