Organic photolysis reactions in tropospheric aerosols: effect on secondary organic aerosol formation and lifetime

This study presents the first modeling estimates of the potential effect of gas- and particle-phase organic photolysis reactions on the formation and lifetime of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs). Typically only photolysis of smaller organic molecules (e.g., formaldehyde) for which explicit data exi...
