Updates in Chemical Analysis of Drugs of Abuse [PDF]
Introduction: Drug abuse is a worldwide crisis, and illicit drug testing is widely applied daily both clinically and forensically. Gas chromatography- mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is the traditional confirmatory gold standard for drug testing and is used ...

Parameterization of ion-induced nucleation rates based on ambient observations [PDF]
Atmospheric ions participate in the formation of new atmospheric aerosol particles, yet their exact role in this process has remained unclear. Here we derive a new simple parameterization for ion-induced nucleation or, more precisely, for the formation ...

Evolution of particle composition in CLOUD nucleation experiments [PDF]
Sulphuric acid, ammonia, amines, and oxidised organics play a crucial role in nanoparticle formation in the atmosphere. In this study, we investigate the composition of nucleated nanoparticles formed from these compounds in the CLOUD (Cosmics Leaving ...

Pulsed electron beams in ion mobility spectrometry
Ion mobility spectrometry is a well-known technique used to analyze trace gases in ambient air. Typically, it works by employing a radioactive source to provide electrons with high energy to ionize the analytes in a series of chemical reactions.
