Abstract

We describe an instrument that measures the chemical composition of single aerosol particles. To facilitate detection of volatile species, particles are analyzed less than 0.5 ms after leaving ambient conditions and without touching any surfaces. Particles are introduced into a vacuum through a differentially pumped nozzle, then cross a He-Ne laser beam. The scattered light provides both size information and the trigger for an excimer laser that desorbs and ionizes molecules from the particle. Mass spectra with excellent signal to noise have been obtained from laboratory and ambient particles 0.3 to 16 μm diameter.

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.
