Revision as of 18:06, 23 April 2015

This is the web page for the Atmospheric Chemistry II Course at CU-Boulder (CHEM/ATOC-5152). It will be co-taught by Profs. Paul Ziemann and Jose-Luis Jimenez in Spring 2015 under the name CHEM-6111 (Special Topics in Analytical Chemistry), while the formal course will be created later.

Organizational Info for Spring 2015

  • We will meet in Ekeley W165, Tue & Thu 9:30-10:45 am
  • Syllabus & Course Schedule
  • Suggested textbooks: Jacob, Finlayson-Pitts & Pitts, Seinfeld & Pandis
  • Homeworks
  • Piazza system for Q&A
  • Office Hrs (both Paul & Jose): 30 min after each lecture (in the classroom) & Wed 11-12 in our offices (Cristol 434 / 436)
    • For Jose an exception is Wed 25-Feb when I have a conflict, so office hours will instead be Fri 27-Feb 11-12.
    • During weeks when we not teaching we can still meet after class, or by appointment.

Topics for Spring 2015 (Ongoing and Already Covered)

Possible Topics for Future Offerings

  • CIMS
    • Fundamentals and reaction mechanisms
      • Predicting reaction rates
    • Properties of key CIMS systems: H3O+, acetate, I-, NO3-
    • PTRMS (Joost de Gouw)
  • Other possible topics
    • Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) and use of the PET and/or ME-2 software tools
    • Introduction to analysis of actual data from instruments (e.g. AMS or CIMS with Igor packages)
    • Other topics of direct research-related interest to students and their advisors
