Now, researchers from Sandia National Laboratory’s Combustion Research Facility, the University of Manchester and the University of Bristol report in a paper in Science the first direct kinetics measurements made of reactions of any gas-phase Criegee intermediate, in this case formaldehyde oxide (CH 2 OO). —Welz et al.

New research by a team at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York suggests that gas-aerosol interactions can amplify the global warming impact of some greenhouse gases. Because the latter was a $126 billion/year market in 2008, even small differences in GWPs can have large economic consequences. Shindell et al.

High-performance computing offers critical new insight into these phenomena, which in turn will accelerate the product’s entry into the market. of New York will partner with ORNL to reduce the cost of carbon fibers in a project titled “Development and Validation of Simulation Capability for the High Capacity Production of Carbon Fiber.”.

The use of petroleum-derived fuels is an important source of reactive gas-phase organic carbon that provides key precursors to the formation of secondary OA (SOA) and tropospheric ozone. The team used a chemical mass balance model to examine the contributions from each source to reactive gas-phase organic carbon.

Isoprene, a five-carbon diene formed naturally in plants and animals and a precursor of ozone, contributes more than 40% of these emissions. Global simulations show an enormous flux—nearly 100 teragrams of carbon per year—of these epoxides to the atmosphere. Paul Wennberg, Caltech, project leader. Dr Kleindienst. 1178324.
