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.
Contents
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)
- Box models, O3 formation in the troposphere, radical chemistry, intro to chamber experiments (Jose)
- Reading (required unless marked otherwise):
- Chapter 3: Simple Models from Jacob
- Chapter 9: Chemical Kinetics from Jacob
- Chapter 11: Oxidizing Power of the Troposphere from Jacob (Read from start till end of section 11.3.2.)
- Tool: KinSim v3.0 kinetics simulator & KinSim help file
- For your review, if needed:
- Other References (not required)
- VOC oxidation & Secondary Organic Aerosol formation mechanisms (Paul)
- Reading: Atkinson & Ziemann SOA review
- References for material discussed in class
- Aerosol mechanics
- Size distributions, condensation / evaporation, gas/particle partitioning and VBS
- Diffusion and in-particle reactions
- Aerosol loss mechanisms and inlets
- Introduction to Chambers and Reactors
- Large Environmental Chambers
- Introduction to Flow Reactors
- Introduction to Aerosol Instrumentation
- SMPS and CPC
- Aerosol Mass Spectrometry
- Reading: HR-ToF-AMS paper
- Thermal Desorption Particle Beam Mass Spectrometry
- Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry (CIMS) (Jose)
- Reading: I- ToF-CIMS paper
Possible Topics for Future Offerings
- CIMS
- Fundamentals and reaction mechanisms

- Properties of key CIMS systems: H3O+, acetate, I-, NO3-
- PTRMS (Joost de Gouw)
- Fundamentals and reaction mechanisms
- 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
