    Abstract Peroxy radicals (RO₂), which are formed during the oxidation of volatile organic compounds, play an important role in atmospheric oxidation reactions. Therefore, the measurement of RO₂, especially distinct species of RO₂ radicals, is important and greatly helps the exploration of atmospheric chemistry mechanisms. Although the speciated detection of RO₂ radicals remains challenging, various methods have been developed to study them in detail. These methods can be divided into spectroscopy and mass spectrometry technologies. The spectroscopy methods contain laser-induced fluorescence (LIF), UV-absorption spectroscopy, cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) and matrix isolation and electron spin resonance (MIESR). The mass spectrometry methods contain chemical ionization atmospheric pressure interface time-of-flight mass spectrometry (CI-APi-TOF), chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CIMS), CI-Orbitrap-MS and the third-generation proton transfer reaction–time-of-flight mass spectrometer (PTR3). This article reviews technologies for the speciated detection of RO₂ radicals and the applications of these methods. In addition, a comparison of these techniques and the reaction mechanisms of some key species are discussed. Finally, possible gaps are proposed that could be filled by future research into speciated RO₂ radicals.

    Abstract A compilation of new advances made in the research field of laboratory reaction kinetics in China's Key Development Project for Air Pollution Formation Mechanism and Control Technologies was presented. These advances are grouped into six broad, interrelated categories, including volatile organic compound (VOC) oxidation, secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation, new particle formation (NPF) and gas-particle partitioning, ozone chemistry, model parameters, and secondary inorganic aerosol (SIA) formation, highlighting the laboratory work done by Chinese researchers. For smog chamber applications, the current knowledge gained from laboratory studies is reviewed, with emphasis on summarizing the oxidation mechanisms of long-chain alkanes, aromatics, alkenes, aldehydes/ketones in the atmosphere, SOA formation from anthropogenic emission sources, and oxidation of aromatics, isoprene, and limonene, as well as SIA formation. For flow tube applications, atmospheric oxidation mechanisms of toluene and methacrolein, SOA formation from limonene oxidation by ozone, gas-particle partitioning of peroxides, and sulfuric acid-water (H₂SO₄-H₂O) binary nucleation, methanesulfonic acid-water (MSA-H₂O) binary nucleation, and sulfuric acid-ammonia-water (H₂SO₄-NH₃-H₂O) ternary nucleation are discussed.

    Abstract Nitrous acid (HONO) is an important source of hydroxyl radicals (OH) in the atmosphere. Precise determination of the absolute ultraviolet (UV) absorption cross section of gaseous HONO lays the basis for the accurate measurement of its concentration by optical methods and the estimation of HONO loss rate through photolysis. In this study, we performed a series of laboratory and field intercomparison experiments for HONO measurement between striping coil-liquid waveguide capillary cell (SC-LWCC) photometry and incoherent broadband cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy (IBBCEAS). Specified HONO concentrations prepared by an ultrapure standard HONO source were utilized for laboratory intercomparisons. Results show a consistent ∼22% negative bias in measurements of the IBBCEAS compared with a SC-LWCC photometer. It is confirmed that the discrepancies occurring between these techniques are associated with the overestimation of the absolute UV absorption cross sections through careful analysis of possible uncertainties. We quantified the absorption cross section of gaseous HONO (360-390 nm) utilizing a custom-built IBBCEAS instrument, and the results were found to be 22-34% lower than the previously published absorption cross sections widely used in HONO concentration retrieval and atmospheric chemical transport models (CTMs). This suggests that the HONO concentrations retrieved by optical methods based on absolute absorption cross sections may have been underestimated by over 20%. Plus, the daytime loss rate and unidentified sources of HONO may also have evidently been overestimated in pre-existing studies. In summary, our findings underscore the significance of revisiting the absolute absorption cross section of HONO and the re-evaluation of the previously reported HONO budgets.

    Abstract We analyzed two data sets of atmospheric formaldehyde (FA) at an urban site in the Shanghai megacity during the summer of 2017 and the winter of 2017/18, with the primary objective of determining the emission ratio of formaldehyde versus carbon monoxide (CO). Through the photochemical age method and the minimum R squared (MRS) method, we derived the summer urban formaldehyde release ratios of 3.37 ppbv (ppmv of CO)

    Abstract We describe an open-path cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy (OP-CEAS) technique for the ambient measurement of nitrate radicals (NO3) near 662 nm. Compared with the closed type of CEAS system with a sampling line, the OP-CEAS features high accuracy due to the lack of NO3 loss in the sampling line and cavity. On the basis of a 0.84 m long open-path cavity, the effective absorption length of ∼5 km is achieved by mirrors with a reflectivity of 0.99985 at 662 nm. The detection limit of OP-CEAS for the measurement of NO3 is 3.0 pptv (2σ) in 30 s, and the uncertainty is 11–15%. The instrument was successfully applied in a field measurement under low particulate matter (PM) loading conditions. As the sensitivity would be decreased due to strong PM extinction under heavy PM pollution conditions, we highlight the feasibility of this OP-CEAS configuration for field application in clean and moderate PM condition, such as forested regions affected by anthropogenic emissions. This technique is also appropriate for the field detection of other reactive trace gases in future studies.

    Abstract Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), hydroxyl radicals (OH), hydroperoxyl (HO₂), and superoxide (O₂⁻) radicals interacting with aerosol particles significantly affect the atmospheric pollutant budgets. A multiphase chemical kinetic box model (PKU-MARK), including the multiphase processes of transition metal ions (TMI) and their organic complexes (TMI-OrC), was built to numerically drive H₂O₂ chemical behaviors in the aerosol particle liquid phase using observational data obtained from a field campaign in rural China. Instead of relying on fixed uptake coefficient values, a thorough simulation of multiphase H₂O₂ chemistry was performed. In the aerosol liquid phase, light-driven TMI-OrC reactions promote OH, HO₂/O₂⁻, and H₂O₂ recycling and spontaneous regenerations. The in-situ generated aerosol H₂O₂ would offset gas-phase H₂O₂ molecular transfer into the aerosol bulk phase and promote the gas-phase level. When combined with the multiphase loss and in-situ aerosol generation involving TMI-OrC mechanism, the HULIS-Mode significantly improves the consistency between modeled and measured gas-phase H₂O₂ levels. Aerosol liquid phase could be a pivotal potential source of aqueous H₂O₂ and influence the multiphase budgets. Our work highlights the intricate and significant effects of aerosol TMI and TMI-OrC interactions on the multiphase partitioning of H₂O₂ when assessing atmospheric oxidant capacity.
