Real-Time Analysis of Individual Atmospheric Aerosol Particles: Design and Performance of a Portable ATOFMS

Gard, Eric, Mayer, Joseph E., Morrical, Brad D., Dienes, Tas, Fergenson, David P., Prather, Kimberly A.·1997·Analytical Chemistry

Abstract

Two portable aerosol time-of-flight mass spectrometers (ATOFMS) of identical design are described. These instruments are powerful new tools for providing temporal and spatial information on the origin, reactivity, and fate of atmospheric aerosols. Each is capable of analyzing the size and composition of individual particles from a polydisperse aerosol in real-time. Particles are introduced into the instrument through a particle beam interface, sized by measuring the delay time between two scattering lasers, and compositionally analyzed using a dual-polarity laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer. These are the first dual-ion TOFMS instruments to utilize a dual reflectron design. The instruments measure 72 in. long × 28 in. wide × 60 in. high and weigh ∼500 lb. Pneumatic tires allow them to be transported through standard doorways, elevators, and handicap ramps, granting access to virtually any location. Furthermore, because of rugged construction they will be able to operate during transport by automobile, boat, or aircraft.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
