Iodine oxoacids enhance nucleation of sulfuric acid particles in the atmosphere

Andrea Baccarini, Lubna Dada, Mihnea Surdu

The main nucleating vapor in the atmosphere is thought to be sulfuric acid (H2SO4), stabilized by ammonia (NH3). However, in marine and polar regions, NH3 is generally low, and H2SO4 is frequently found together with iodine oxoacids [HIOx, i.e., iodic acid ...

Low‐Volatility Vapors and New Particle Formation Over the Southern Ocean During the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini, Robin Lewis Modini

During summer, the Southern Ocean is largely unaffected by anthropogenic emissions, which makes this region an ideal place to investigate marine natural aerosol sources and processes. A better understanding of natural aerosol is key to constrain the preind ...

Frequent new particle formation over the high Arctic pack ice by enhanced iodine emissions

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini

In the central Arctic Ocean the formation of clouds and their properties are sensitive to the availability of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). The vapors responsible for new particle formation (NPF), potentially leading to CCN, have remained unidentified s ...

Sulfuric acid condensation sink calculated for the Arctic Ocean 2018 expedition

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini, Nasser Arbabi

The condensation sink is a measure of the sulfuric acid lifetime against condensation on preexisting aerosol particles. Dimensionally it is the inverse of a time (reported in per second) and it is calculated starting from the aerosol size distribution. A l ...

Tribocorrosion of a CoCrMo alloy in sulfuric acid - Glycerol mixtures

Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

This work reports on the tribocorrosion properties of a CoCrMo alloy sliding under imposed passive potential against alumina in sulfuric acid-glycerol mixtures exhibiting different viscosities and thus, in principle, lubrication properties. As expected, we ...
