On the roles of sulphuric acid and low-volatility organic vapours in the initial steps of atmospheric new particle formation
Sulphuric acid and organic vapours have been identified as the key components in the ubiquitous secondary new particle formation in the atmosphere. In order to assess their relative contribution and spatial variability, we analysed altogether 36 new particle formation events observed at four Europea...
