Description
Summary:The aerosol formation processes resulting from photooxidation of SO sub(2) are under intense studies during last several decades. Different versions of nucleation theories are used to model aerosol evolution in this system. They qualitatively correctly describe experimental results, but quantitative comparison of theory and experiments is sparse, due to uncertainties in model parameters and in experimental data. The kinetics of nanometer-sized particles formation during SO sub(2) - air photolysis in a laminar-flow reactor at different relative humidities (RH) is reported.
