MEASURED ATMOSPHERIC NEW PARTICLE FORMATION RATES: IMPLICATIONS FOR NUCLEATION MECHANISMS
Abstract
Measured production rates of tropospheric ultrafine particles (˜3nm diameter) are reported for the first time and are shown to be orders of magnitude greater than nucleation rates predicted by the binary theory of homogeneous nucleation for sulfuric acid and water. Furthermore, the functional dependence of observed particle formation rates on sulfuric acid vapor concentrations is much weaker than predicted by binary theory. We present arguments to show that these discrepancies might be due to the participation of a species such as ammonia which could stabilize subcritical clusters, thereby enhancing nucleation rates. The data suggest that atmospheric nucleation may occur by a collision-limited process, rather than by a condensation/evaporation controlled process as is assumed in the classical theory.

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.
