  2. Aerodyne Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) Particle Aerodynamic Sizing Particle Beam Composition Generation Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer Chopper Thermal Vaporization & Electron Impact Ionization TOF Region Aerodynamic Lens (2 Torr) Turbo Pump Turbo Pump Turbo Pump Particle Inlet (1 atm) 100% transmission (60-600 nm), aerodynamic sizing, linear mass signal.

  3. AMS:Size Resolved Chemical Composition of Sub-micron aerosol (PM1) Non-refractory (NR) composition (thermal vaporization at 600C) e.g. no black carbon (BC), dust or (typically) seasalt Electron Impact (EI) Mass Spectrometry – quantitative mass loading All NR components detected with little uncertainty direct calibration / chemically unbiased sample Mass spectrum of inorganics and organics easy to separate Analysis of organic matter (OM) – primary vs secondary hydrocarbon (lube oil) vs oxidized (HULIS) direct measure of OM/OC ratio Aerodynamic focusing and sizing collection efficiency  1 for aspherical particles; e.g. (NH4)2SO4 measure CE with beam width probe – particle shape information aerodynamic (AMS) + mobility (SMPS) sizing  particle mass, density, shape and fractal dimension + chemistry

  4. Mass balance –TEOM, PILS, OC/EC Organic classification: primary vs oxidized  OM/OC ratio Sizing – comparison with SMPS ( and Moudi) small, fractal organic vs mixed organic/sulfate accumulation dirunal and seasonal patterns compare to vehicle and dynometer emissions Future: ToF-AMS, higher sensitivity (aircraft time response) and single particle composition “cheaper, simpler” Q-AMS system hour time resolution size binning (<100nm, 100-200 nm, > 200 nm)

FUTURE IDEAS  lower cost “Cheaper” AMS – smaller, no fast electronics, limited size binning approaching cost and operational equivalent of RGA or GCMS simple calibration system? cost equivalent to collection of individual continuous instruments add thermal denuder to evaluate semivolatile component Aerosol Collection (with aerodynamic lens) (Paul Ziemann) – in situ (EI) mass spectrometric analysis - separation via volatility aerosol collection (< 1 hour) [ Hacene Boudries ] for direct injection into speciation detectors e.g. GCMS, PTRMS
