Finlayson-Pitts B
Faraday Discuss . 2017 Jul; 200:11-58. PMID: 28686249
The term "Anthropocene" was coined by Professor Paul Crutzen in 2000 to describe an unprecedented era in which anthropogenic activities are impacting planet Earth on a global scale. Greatly increased...

Xu J, Finlayson-Pitts B, Benny Gerber R
J Phys Chem A . 2017 Mar; 121(12):2377-2385. PMID: 28287734
Understanding the properties of atmospheric particles made of several components is a very challenging problem. In this paper, we perform quantum chemical calculations for small multicomponent clusters of atmospheric relevance...

Fairhurst M, Ezell M, Kidd C, Lakey P, Shiraiwa M, Finlayson-Pitts B
Phys Chem Chem Phys . 2017 Jan; 19(6):4827-4839. PMID: 28133655
Atmospheric particles adversely affect visibility, health, and climate, yet the kinetics and mechanisms of particle formation and growth are poorly understood. Multiphase reactions between amines and dicarboxylic acids (diacids) have...

Arquero K, Benny Gerber R, Finlayson-Pitts B
Environ Sci Technol . 2017 Jan; 51(4):2124-2130. PMID: 28117992
Atmospheric particles are notorious for their effects on human health and visibility and are known to influence climate. Though sulfuric acid and ammonia/amines are recognized as main contributors to new...

Chen H, Ezell M, Arquero K, Varner M, Dawson M, Benny Gerber R, et al.
Phys Chem Chem Phys . 2017 Jan; 19(6):4893. PMID: 28117464
Correction for 'New particle formation and growth from methanesulfonic acid, trimethylamine and water' by Haihan Chen et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2015, 17, 13699-13709.

Aregahegn K, Shemesh D, Benny Gerber R, Finlayson-Pitts B
Environ Sci Technol . 2016 Dec; 51(5):2660-2668. PMID: 27989110
Imidacloprid (IMD) is the most widely used neonicotinoid insecticide found on environmental surfaces and in water. Analysis of surface-bound IMD photolysis products was performed using attenuated total reflectance Fourier transfer...

Chen H, Finlayson-Pitts B
Environ Sci Technol . 2016 Dec; 51(1):243-252. PMID: 27935699
Previous studies have shown that methanesulfonic acid (MSA) reacts with amines and ammonia to form particles, which is expected to be particularly important in coastal and agricultural areas. We present...

Richards-Henderson N, Anderson C, Anastasio C, Finlayson-Pitts B
Phys Chem Chem Phys . 2015 Nov; 17(48):32211-8. PMID: 26577172
The photochemistry of nitrate ions in bulk aqueous solution is well known, yet recent evidence suggests that the photolysis of nitrate may be more efficient at the air-water interface. Whether...

Perraud V, Horne J, Martinez A, Kalinowski J, Meinardi S, Dawson M, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2015 Oct; 112(44):13514-9. PMID: 26483454
Sulfuric acid (H2SO4), formed from oxidation of sulfur dioxide (SO2) emitted during fossil fuel combustion, is a major precursor of new airborne particles, which have well-documented detrimental effects on health,...

Chen H, Varner M, Benny Gerber R, Finlayson-Pitts B
J Phys Chem B . 2015 Sep; 120(8):1526-36. PMID: 26379061
New particle formation (NPF) from gaseous precursors as a significant source of aerosol needs to be better understood to accurately predict the impacts on visibility, climate change, and human health....
