Abstract:

Goals:
Isolate ozone chemistry from OH chemistry (OHchem should read zero); investigate ozone-related interferences with OH instruments; explore product formation, and compare to 140106 ozonolysis experiment.

Summary:
This was as clean of an experiment as we could have hoped. Cyclohexane seemed to scavenge the OH well, as very low signals of OH+isop tracers were observed. GTHOS measured all milestones of the experiment, and observed much higher interference when isoprene was added. The reaction seemed well-mixed in the beginning, leading to less undesired chemistry. The expected ozonolysis products (like HMHP) were observed with CIMS, as well as 1 to 2 ug/m^3 of particles that nucleated. The MAC and MVK traces on the GC-FID appear to be free of interferences. At the end lights were turned on at 100% for 1 h. After lights off, seeds were added for 1 h. Formaldehyde LIF measured successfully today, which is great news. There seemed to be some interference on the GTHOS even though OH was scrubbed, although interferences may be lower than at the end of the HPALD experiment.

Citation counts are compiled through information provided by publicly-accessible APIs according to the guidelines developed through the https://makedatacount.org/ project. If journals do not provide citation information to these publicly-accessible services, then this citation information will not be included in RDA citation counts. Additionally citations that include dataset DOIs are the only types included in these counts, so legacy citations without DOIs, references found in publication acknowledgements, or references to a related publication that describes a dataset will not be included in these counts.
