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.
Topics for Spring 2015
- Fundamentals of radical chemistry and ozone formation in the troposphere, and box models (Jose)
- VOC oxidation & Secondary Organic Aerosol formation mechanisms (Paul)
- Reading: Atkinson & Ziemann SOA review
- Aerosol mechanics
- Size distributions
- Condensation / evaporation and coagulation
- Gas/particle partitioning and VBS
- Diffusion and in-particle reactions
- Aerosol loss mechanisms and inlets
- Introduction to Chambers and Reactors
- Large Environmental Chambers
- Oxidation Flow Reactors
- Introduction to Aerosol Instrumentation
- SMPS and CPC
- AMS and TDPBMS
- Reading: HR-ToF-AMS paper & TDPBMS paper
- Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry (CIMS) (Jose)
- Fundamentals and reaction mechanisms
- Predicting reaction rates
- Properties of key CIMS systems: H3O+, acetate, I-, NO3-
- PTRMS
- Reading: I- ToF-CIMS paper
- Fundamentals and reaction mechanisms
- Other possible topics
