α-pinene photooxidation under controlled chemical conditions &ndash; Part 2: SOA yield and composition in low- and high-NO<sub>x</sub> environments

The gas-phase oxidation of α-pinene produces a large amount of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in the atmosphere. A number of carboxylic acids, organosulfates and nitrooxy organosulfates associated with α-pinene have been found in field samples and some are used as tracers of α-pinene oxidation. α-p...
