Our paper presents the first direct observation of this process. Specifically, the fundamental chemistry discovery could be used to find or to design fuels that burn cleaner and don’t produce as much soot. When you burn a flame, you start with a gas-phase reactant and then analyze the products, which include soot. —Musahid Ahmed.
